Zen mode

as the false ego recedes 
and pristine presence emerges
this shell in which we dwell
invokes grace as bliss surges

resting stirrings that may arise 
slow, slower and slower yet still
motionless in each storm
we imbibe peace to heart’s fill

quieter than the void of space 
where in form we are encased
transcendent yet immanent 
no puzzles remain to be laced
