Reduction as a Process of Expansion

by Scott Thomas Outlar / September 3rd, 2017

I will melt at the flash point
of simplicity
until my mind
evaporates
into mist

I will meditate on the blessings
of light
until my eyes
can see God
through the shadows

I will trust in the process
of Tao
until water
grows calm
in the river

I will seek the true depths
of faith
until conflict
holds no sway
in my heart

I will drift along the pathway
of memories
until wisdom
resurrects
all your teachings

I will sit through the swelter
of summer
until autumn
claims the season
with new color
