The Best Poem Of Jerry Kirk

Chant No.1

These eyes are neither blind nor do they see
These ears are neither deaf nor do they hear
These lips neither speak nor are they silent
This body neither moves or stands still
Remove all self perception and what is left?

This mind neither thinks or is thoughtless
These hands neither hang on or let go
This heart neither desires or fears
This spirit neither fights or surrenders
Remove all self perception and what is left?

Travel a pathless, path
Go through a gatless, gate
Neither a part of or separate from the universe

Don't be trapped or even set free
Don't feel empty or even full
Neither a part of or separate from the universe

See things as neither together or separate or
Even as nothing
See things as neither good or bad or
Even as neutral
See things as neither better nor worse or
Even as equal
See things as neither top or bottom or
Even as in between

See a colorless, color
Taste a tasteless, taste
Neither a part of or separate from the universe

Don't be filthy or even pure
Don't think of nothing or even something
Neither a part of or separate from the universe
