Living among cobras

Greetings, Friend

Hello

Are you ready?

Yes

And so Cobra bit
and the man lay down
to wait
for death to come

♫ ♫ ♫

He had been living on the edge
of being all and nothing
for some time,
and that edge had been getting sharper

A wave
becoming what it had always been:
an ocean
And as the dream began to dissolve,
the man began to awake

♫ ♫ ♫

Letting go
of what had never been,
released
from the limits of imagination,
the man began to levitate
in the pitch-black stillness
of non-being

♫ ♫ ♫

In the absence of fear,
bereft of desire,
pure awareness flowed
