Meditation #1

Reaching Inside

to Center Mind

and further still

past Grey Matter

past axon and dendrite

through the synapse

Once more unto the breach

and further still

into cell

into nucleus

into gene

into acid amino

and further still

into particle carbon

past electron

past proton

into neutron

and further still

to Reach

The Void

and reside within

and wait, still

Being within Nothing

as the World Serpent

tail-in-mouth

consumes itself

 

Wait

and Hold

Still

 

 

Wait

 

and

 

Hold

 

Still

 

 

Now gently Returning

Up and Out

tugging softly at The Void

with wish whisper touch

softer than Light

pulling

bringing Nothing

Up and Out

into Everything

into Center Mind

Up and Out

leaving neutron

past proton and electron

leaving carbon

Up and Out

pulling No-thing

Up and Out

leaving gene, leaving nucleus, leaving cell

Up and Out

bringing The Void

Up and Out

through synapse

past dendrite and axon

through Matters Grey

Up and Out and Into

 

Center of Mind

the Hole in

Your Self

the Whole within

the Holy

You

 

Now Wait

 

and Hold

 

Still
