the beauty of self as ethics

is ethics a thought dilemma, 

examining self-examining?

can looking into a mirror ever reveal 

beyond its methods to get results, 

from looking into a mirror?

can looking be questioned?

can sight ever work beyond the use of appraisal?

does the mindful always intervene

with conclusions made 

and a false sense of questioning to follow?

how to question the questioner

with a technique that is beyond revelation?

how to become, beyond what seeing has to offer,

in the traditional sense of sightedness?

if our senses were not termed down

to feed mindful tasks with occupancy,

where would we perceive

and who of us from within would take that

beyond what mind is trained to render?

beyond lunacy in a call back as relevant?

where depiction in return is useless,

where having gone, has no return destiny to it,

where with sensory range is uninhabited,

we would be more-so, as we are, 

but without restraint as mind-full-ness so orders?

take any sense that we currently use,

beyond mindful curtailment,

beyond logic or sensible into narrative

or self as audience on a ride of it.

and go there, from within what is offered.

and what do you, from a sense selection, see?

since seeing became, not reflection-dependent 

upon mental commentary as thought-filled framing?

what vibratory is that, that first appears, 

as indulgent, from an audience perspective,

that is soon to be released from relevance?

just that, that, that was mirror, is now a portal.

what was an image, is now an emergence.

where questioning only exists, as acknowledgments.

where the rites of passage are from that, as observance

into full-blown presence,

without the wardrobe of questioning yet addressing.

we are all there and yet absent from.

curtailed and restrained.

experiential towards cohesive context-bound.

go to the mind, take off the words,

leap into the waters of the senses

and swim until liquified and embodied.

now what sense do you make of that?

but don't ask your mind. 

ask yourself beyond where thought saves your ass

from being boundary-less and boundless,

and or bountiful.

that's all I am trying to say.

the rest is up to you, 

as your self-ethics,

based on your interpretation, 

as your offering, given to yourself . . .
