Hi.
We don't have a lot of time,
or, well, I guess you do,

Start and end each day,
and life,
with a taoist egg.

I doubt my eggs are religious.

organic incubators, 
co-arising nondual yolk form
with transparent regenerative function,
cosmological purpose, maybe,
if you're a chicken,
or a turkey, 
or a...

Do you make your money, honey, 
with both light and dark co-arising memory
