Analysis of Looking deep



Deep looking
Past broken images of broken
Mirrors within the changing change
Of here and now

Quiet resistance without
Conditioned response
Distills the mind from wondering
Expressions experienced
Knowledge of knowing
We look anew again

Quit stillness listening
We meet between the spaces
Where conflicts reside
Beyond the images created
Of responses intended
A thousand tomorrows
Of thousand sorrows
Within a thousand dreams

Between the outward inward  
Of deconstructed negations
Within the negation of what is not
Of observing the observer
That is observed

We meet the living presence that
Grasps the whole
From me that which tells the truth
From you
