Zen mode

the bubble of ignorance dissolves
noiselessly in the void
for a moment we are free but then it reforms 
we are once again by thoughts decoyed

we notice this see-saw oscillation
yet do nothing since no one is here 
poised in a stillness continuum
we are free from seeking and free from fear

Ahhh my heart and soul is warm reading your zen words dear seeker, you always have a special way of doing that, after a long busy hectic day, reading you is like bringing calm into the conscience. I really love how youv said "we notice this see-saw oscillation yet do nothing since no one is here poised in a stillness continuum" your spirituality is beautiful to the eyes mind and soul. Touches all the chakras! Pleasure reading! Sending you light always! A fave
