2015, being, between, blessing, Buddha, cliffs, duty, identity, letting go, looking, manfestation, meditation, non-doing, openness, power, realisation, sea, self, space, time, trust, Vajrapani
I learnt
a while ago that power
is to be
found between what it lets
manifest:
the blessing of Vajrapani when
I wasn’t
even looking for it but was
actively
open to it should it come along,
although
there is always space if you
don’t look
too carefully and there’s always
the duty
of not looking too carefully if you trust
the space
between enough to let it go to be
without
getting the needy self all tangled
up in it
I had a
hunch about this earlier* when
looking
back at the cliffs while floating on the sea and
watched
the Buddha sit in meditation
for hours
that seemed like geologic eras
* poem called ‘Buddha Shakyamuni’; yet to be published

being wormhole: purpose
Buddha wormhole: silence
identity wormhole: under silent direction of architecture
letting go & realisation wormhole: relapse
looking wormhole: ‘the old chair rocked …’
meditation wormhole: tong // len
openness wormhole: new year’s eve 2014; train up to London to / walk the bridges across the Thames, and / listen to the voices say it is, and was, like, / but get back home before the fireworks / obliterate it all in the emptying twilight
power wormhole: Dr Strange II – … things are the same again
sea wormhole: September – silhouette of leaf // the / inside and the / outside
space wormhole: Woolwich Central – making life better II
time wormhole: what heavy and cantilevered structure
I enjoy your poems but mostly can’t leave comments because there appears to be no place to do so. Hope that’s ok! love rose

I enjoy your comments but mostly can’t read them because you haven’t scrolled down below, the wormholes, the ‘rate this’, the ‘share this’, the ‘related’ and the post end-matter where you’d find the comments box … it’s suddenly occurred to me that you read from the archive list which doesn’t show a comments box – you have to click on the post to find the comments box; I’m off to see if I can do anything about this –

yep; the theme I use just won’t show a comment box in the archive feed; you’ll need to go ‘into’ each post to comment and like; thank you for bringing this up: it prompts me again to reconsider the theme I use
