Around the corner I visit Koan Float
because I could have been floating
between thriving bodies in the Dead Sea
at the deepest point
of the earth's crust but
I rather expose me completely
to sensory death
with the koan that my essence is
that there's no essence anywhere

Floating I practice ukizen
looking like a man with clear vision
who carries out a careful research
I delete every sideshow till the core
remains I start to find out
internally who and what I am
again and again until I know the truth
and my head has caught fire
of longing for what is eternal

But the water overcomes the fire
wipes away the shapes of my body preservation
with some reflections ripples salt
eats my flesh but lets me live
in a sarcophagus my mind keeps hovering
over emptiness I breathe upon nature
and experience enlightened the adventure
of the koan to float disembodied
that essentially no one can describe
