'LaoTzu, cares not'


'Lao Tzu, cares not'                            timothy r gates, 11/13/2013
Lao Tzu,
cares not for the notion,
Yin Yang
balance between
good and evil.
Ohm,
inter-permeating
female<>male,
like Celtic knots,
not synchronous
but synergistic.
People playing,
expecting a monk's transcendence, with
Jesus prayers
Sitting
Breathing
Worry beads
Prostrations
Rosaries
Dervish dance
Chants --
Hindus, Buddhists, Jews,
Pagans, Nihilists, Christians,
trumpeting
Enlightenment, Nirvana, Theosis.
Lao Tzu, like Jesus,
has no friend, called
Evil and Good -
Synergy's symphony
cries,
harmony.
The elusive
overtone
kicks everyone's ass,
each of us hitting their
own note, spot on,
held out until
we're shining like
Moses--
that note
not possible solo,
not elusive,
now heard,
Lao Tzu
pauses, smiling.
