The Zen Master

The Zen Master


Absorbed within the soul’s abyss,
Far from the clinch of time,
He’s mastering the state of bliss—
A practice so sublime.

The wind gyrates the weathercock;
A wrinkle’s on the scrim;
A chisel gouges out a rock;
But nothing hampers him.

Just like a tot who, overjoyed,
Sucks from its mother’s teat,
He’s sucks the milk of Cosmic Void
Where peace and oneness meet.
