never born in me.

Zywa Into the unbound

I do start to listen
but it is a concert
for aware Buddhists
that turns off your senses
The organ is grunting Om

and after 20 minutes I wonder
who Í am, who the others are

without coughing bound
to their chair, by one tone, close
to each other, but not enough
alone to meditate
into the unbound

Another 45 minutes
of silence in conclusion
Only the rustle
of the 72 blowing eyes
of the air ceiling

Zywa Thought to be

What I do and how
I live and think and whereto
Well, who I am...

Still breathing air
from your mouth and thinking
to be rather us than me

Questions I had, you unexpectedly
asked, so I thought
to be more us than me

Your eyes asked me
without any shield or screen of pretence
to feel who we are, by the sea

you whispered I see myself in you
and I thought to be more us than me
whoever we might be
