The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection.

To be Human.

Praise to the emptiness that blanks out existence.
Existence: This place made from our love for that emptiness!
Yet somehow comes emptiness,this existence goes.

Praise to that happening, over and over!
For years I pulled my own existence out of emptiness.
Then one swoop, one swing of the arm, that work is over.

Free of who I was, free of presence, free of dangerous fear, hope, free of mountainous wanting.
The here-and-now mountain is a tiny piece of a piece of straw blown off into emptiness.
These words I'm saying so much begin to lose meaning:
Existence, emptiness, mountain, straw:
Words and what they try to say swept out the window, down the slant of the roof.

-Rumi

I'm free again. Home is where the heart rests - mine is in Colorado.
