within
these five syllables
lies the universe...
you,
angels and demons
me, included too
so do
the five elements,
the past, present and future,
and the states of waking, dream and deep sleep too...
this is where
the atom gets to pirouette
thanks to his cosmic breath
which reverberates
the mantra OM
in that sentient golden hall
with a thousand pillars
the enchanting damsel of illusion
who once shared half his body
stands in total surrenderš
bound by duality,
sheās awestruck
at the sight of his pantomimic dance
spanning eleven dimensions
which even crushes saintly time
