deeper

there's something deeper than our science
deeper than our sophistry
than our schisms
our systems
deeper than the sick symbiosis
of oppressor and oppressed
something deeper than karma
deeper than the interwoven fabric of lives
in every world, at every time

the light that shines outward
from inside
illumines everything you’d hope
or fear to find
the mad infinity that lies outside
has nothing
on the One inside
that shines
