Moving forward heart

January 1, 2009

Moving forward heart aggressive

springs out of my chest
shoves aside my breasts
bursts the bounds of bra (or busts)
lies there hardening raw in air
texture of dried beef (it’s jerky)

dark blood color, failed,
an awkward stone, organic and obscure

we are no different from the plants in our avidity

The beginning of the universe
Is the mother of all things.
Knowing the mother, one also knows the sons.
Knowing the sons, yet remaining in touch with the mother,
Brings freedom from the fear of death.

Keep your mouth shut,
Guard the senses,
And life is ever full.
Open your mouth,
Always be busy,
And life is beyond hope.

Seeing the small is insight;
Yielding to force is strength.
Using the outer light, return to insight,
And in this way be saved from harm.
This is learning constancy.

By Lao Tzu
