By Seven
January 23, 2006
the meditation could be anything
an old count of seven in and seven hold
and seven out again, that you might count fast or slow
but deep your body knows the seals
and to the river goes, to the furnace, dark red coals
awash with thunder, seven in and out again
four stone awash, four stone gone, four into the life again
where any pattern might do, falling into dance ��s crucible
strumming towards the dawn ��s seared silence
birds and breaths a taken pause �� waiting for
and then
and the meditation could be anything
reminder of core, remainder of ore slung silver
white in clean heat, grounded, topped �� and all wrapped up
invitation of self to self, tucked in defense
thus it is, the meditation could be everything
and long enough in, you ��ll find it ��s already been
that memory ��s core simply becomes �� at will
random and structure etched into one
and they ��d speak the condition is fragile
take away those simple needs and torn the pattern fails
that the hungry dancer falls, the bubble in the forge splays wire
that lightning cores the tired, they ��d teach that deprivation or surfeit
each lead towards oblivion
I say they know nothing of core, and the meditation is tool alone
oblivion, privation, each incorporated ��
define no empty, nor demand a tangible support
will and choice alone do voice �� beyond I am, undefined
center ��s avalanche and stasis do remain
and the method fades
like grace, like switching in
