One Without a Second

A freshly minted nondual poem pointing to THIS

Mind can bring you to the threshold but it takes grace in the form of Truth or beauty to topple through. *note the sign at the threshold: ‘Welcome! Please leave your person outside’. ;-) Hear and/read this poem below.

One Without a Second

labels smother,
as there is no other.

no father or mother,
sister or brother.
no friend or foe,
no one higher or low.

don’t bother to name,
as all are the same,
frame all as One,
see this and be done.

being done with separation,
with terms or relation,
reveals a quiet elation,
regardless of role,
each representing
a part of the whole...

a particular perspective,
be it joyful or invective,
no expression is defective,
just what is... here and now.

with no labels to smother,
there can be no other.
