FEAST ON DUALITY

1

Breathing is necessary, important

If it stops long enough then so do we

But one more thing and it might make our day

Breathing is a feast of duality

2

How so? Just think of in and out a while

Or up and down, or good and bad, and such

Each breath we take splits a duality

If we consider this we may learn much

3

Our final state brooks no duality

In Heaven everything is unified

Solidity is Earthly, so is breath

So ask yourself what sort of truth we ride

4

Breathe in breathe out, our truth depends on both

And finally what’s down does not come up

There is a state when everything is right

And we drink only from a nondual cup

5

But get this. As we breathe, we mix things up

And then we see that all of our fine tune

Makes not a whit of difference finally

Duality is what fills life’s balloon

6

Mental Existence is a mindful trick

It defeats dual even as we breathe

We choose what’s good not evil by our thought

Then what we deemed above becomes beneath
