Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 11/12/08 at 09:04 AM Wow MFS this feels like medieval Zen, in that a practitioner of Zen is most basically one whose life is awakening each moment to that threshold, the still point where all the possibilities exist. To practice is to release oneself from the momentum of the past, the karma of what seems to be indicated as the only next step. Aside from that we may need some to prescribed some vigorous "hacks" at the past, with whatever is handy! Good exercise, either way. Delighted with your poem. Thanks.
