Inhale
acrid smoke
flying embers
the bodies of trees
particles of charred soil
manic flames
bourne of greed
hazy blindness
swirling confusion
madness driven mad
anguish multiplying anguish
without beginning
without end
this searing pain.
Exhale
great vow
immense oceans
cool dharma rain
showers of beneficence
soothing balm
poured from brokenness
given from poverty
unremitting devotion
service entering service
awakening calling to awakening
from age to age
eon to eon
this boundless love.
