Guest poet: Up and Down (a poem)

Up and Down (a poem)
                 Thesis
Temporality is on display
All is day, there is no night
There are no boundaries
History is obsolete
All is present
               Antithesis
See what you can see
Before it seizes you,
Pulls you down,
then lifts you up
Into the heights,
Flagellates you,
Yes, so you can rise again.
             Synthesis
The empty mind is the luminous mind.
The luminous mind creates light
and the beings who inhabit its world.
That is the synthesis.
