no artifice sticks for so very long.
The life force flows from my heart, with no ceasing. It covers all the bases, reaches to every atom and moment — that is, the entire universe, in every dimension. What can I say? Thank you. I shall not see anything as separate from me. I listen to the Friend, and she tells me what…

a poem in progress…
This is a 21 part poem that is currently 38 percent finished… I thought that posting it might inspire me to finish it… let me know your thoughts. It’s based on a short text by Terton Padgyal Lingpa, called ’21 Encouragements to Be Earnest’. I feel that some parts need filling out. Which parts seems…

the wheel of time spins on the black market.
1. I would walk into the gates of the gompa at the latest moment, right before the gates were closed, tired from a long day of being a socialite in Boudha, roaming the restaurants, looking with French ex-aghoris at the life-stories of eccentric Tibetan saints reknowned for their sexual exploits and magical powers, maybe becoming…

i almost forgot about this one
1. What is that you are withholding from yourself and why is it that this withholding is so persistent and evasive and how does this withholding de-illuminate itself with such skill like insects hiding in moss like mucus hiding in a nasal passage like a fracture hiding in a spine and while they do it…

For Isaak.
Isaak… where have you gone now? What country are you off to now? No one will ever you see you again. But there were many who loved you. You said you were going to cross the mountains of rain, defying the border police, arriving like a secret into Nepal. You said you would hike around…

my first day in Kathmandu.
I. Awaken to a rainbow garden Bedecked with sneaky slits of sunlight Where butter rains and fills your pores And the gods put up a good fight. Awaken to a pond of flowers Self-arising in its motion Slowly waving, then just parting While the frogs rub on some lotion. II. Shiva falls into the deepest…

holding your head under water in the bath of concepts.
I am constantly amazed by how many concepts I can hold inside my mind at one time. They are all endlessly connected, overlapping eachother, transparent but capturing, like the shades of a kaleidoscope, passing along meaning like a newspaper boy with a thousand arms — they are really happening all at once. Some Sri Lankan…

the most important investigation.
“The rat is time, the tiger is time too. Living beings are time. Buddhas are time too. This time witnesses the whole world with three heads and eight arms, it witnesses the whole world with the sixteen foot tall golden body.” -Dogen 1. Leaves are floating all through space I go but only through your…

rolling on the inside circumference of the circus sphere.
1. The trucks that go by are marked like party vehicles for la Dia de los Muertos. The wind pampers my face, loosening my lips so I can smile at the sky dancers outside. Like a heavy rain sliding down a stationwagon window the world outside cascades forever provoking tidal waves of sensation in my…

imprints energetic.
Two months in a cave, prostrating to the deathless face we know so well, but forget at almost every moment, he was touched by the lanky hand of the cotton clad super star, and was somehow sanctified. We all need to go to the caves of our own connection. We all need to be touched by the…
