the variety of grotesquery
with which beings grasp their self
the various grips of power
through summits of council
and various arrays of stake and brandishment
appear as the armies of Mara,
the thirty two ways of seducing
that would fill life to the full
over both his shoulders
while sat under the Tree as endlessly still
as the orbiting earth;
the Bodhisattva turned his head,
clean as no motivation at all
to exposure and scattered diaspora,
but looked on them all
with eyes like petals

Buddha wormhole: Candaka
compassion wormhole: at Kreukenhof
eyes wormhole: Lapping Reflections [Deep Within Waters] – sooner; / and later
identity & life wormhole: none and all
power wormhole: the Bodhisattva set out / for the Seat of Awakening
sitting wormhole: quietly in my quiet house
