I just upgraded to WordPress 2.3 and it broke some of my plugins and does not work with all themes. So I found another that does work well with 2.3. This one is highly configurable so I may change things around from time to time. (Big surprise there!) Hope you all don’t mind too much.

as emptiness overtook
mind as cloud

Since Writers Island has so many different writers in it I thought to dig up an oldie (August 28th) that I wrote for “One Deep Breath” haiku site. (And my wife had hip replacement surgery today so I’m a little distracted)
Onyx and Pearl
Tiny diamonds surround them
brought tears to her eyes

two soft loving lips
add two more willing soft lips
gently stir. Voila!

Is repetitive action virtuous action?
If behaviour and conduct are merely repetitive processes then
all human relationships actually cease.
If I behave mechanically every day,
- repeating a certain code of conduct which I have learnt,
which I find profitable, or which is pleasant,
repeating that over and over again, -
my relationship with you ceases, completely [...]

(One of my favorite poets; thought you might enjoy it too)
excerpts from Perpetuum Mobile: The City
—a dream
we dreamed
each
separately
we two
of love
and of
desire—
that fused
in the night—
in the distance
over
the meadows
by day
impossible—
The city
disappeared
when
we arrived—
A dream
a little false
toward which
now
we stand
and stare
transfixed—
All at once
in the east
rising!
All white!
small
as a flower—
a locust cluster
a shad bush
blossoming
Over the swamps
a wild
magnolia bud—
greenish
white
a northern
flower—
And so
we live
looking—
At [...]

This is the first draft of a post of a few days ago, “Wei Wu Wei“. Thought I would post it as well for context and contrast.
truth is non dual
only seeing is itself truth
all else is bondage
non volitional living
the see-er and the thing seen
is the dualism
“The seeing of Truth cannot be dualistic (a ‘thing’ seen). [...]

River flows
just passing water.
No ripple or drop
the same.
Therefore
there is no river,
there is no man.

It’s all in my head
this imaginary life
imposing itself
in its form
upon the universe.
This imaginary life
flies from the brain
onto page after page
tweaking your own
imaginary life.
Thus you write your own
tome of a life imagined
in line and verse.
And the universe
remembers.
This one inspired by the first prompt at Writers Island
