My Mask

my mask might trick you into beauty and into lust
may drag you into the depth of your trust
but what will you do,
when my mask turns to dust...
and all that's left is us?

Just don't seek from others,
Or you'll be far estranged from Self.
I now go on alone;
Everywhere I meet It:
It now is me; I now am It.
One must understand in this way
To merge with thusness.

~ Dongshan Liangjie (807-869)

Strangerous

I've given you enough time to read me,
So shut the book, give it a rest
I've given you enough time to study me,
Here's a pen and paper, write the test
I've given you all this time to love me,
Not to change me
Rearrange me
Become strange to me.
Not to leave me
But believe me
And see me,
For what I am.

- MF
