(“Dragon’s Eye”, 2024, original encaustic)
Waking To Duality
I wake from a dream
Where I’d been in nondual samadhi
A vivid clarity of thoughtless meditation
I tried to sustain once awake
Until I realized I probably have such dreams
All the time and never know.
The vanity and thus duality of life
Is the desire and attempt to recreate
What already is
Making it into the shape
Of our own preference.
Adding the personal touch of our decor,
Thought and sound track
To capture something elusive
Beyond the edge of thought, sound and vision;
A comfortable little bottle
To be a captive genie within.
