Opening Meditation (2002)

Flow,
pour yourself into
the flow

and then
rest
with the flow.

Through
your room
windows

you
are seeking
those who awaken

in the future,
silent roads
from the past,

the deafness
of lovers,
the rain.

One fallen piece
of water
a mirror

balances
these pulsing colours
of life.

You do
not see
the shattered

flowers,
nor the exits,
those who left.

Your eyes
follow
the flame

inside
and outside
of sight.

You grasp
a cold key
and

with it
unlock the game
of change:

to flow,
pour yourself into
the flow

then
rest
with the flow.
