Tao #1 / Labels
Ф
Labels
words, verbs and lines
serve to define
that which can be named
yet infinity cannot be charted
eternity cannot be corraled
uncircumferenced presence
centered everywhere, within without
cannot be defined
with the scribing of a line
bare of name
source of creation
bearing names
mothers gives birth
in the beginning one
from one to two
one becomes another
thus a mother
feeling separate
reaching outward
for union found within
reaching inward
union remains
movements still
freed of desire, fulfilled in Unity
filled with desire manifesting reality
form is defined
thought needs mind
letting go of thought
we move beyond space and time
no piece, know peace
these two are the same
through through unfoldment
in appearance different
the secret Mystery
divergent unity
gateway doorway reality
