we, where oneness begins

We each view the stills

of our individual movies,

differently

then we live lives

in the deeper sameness

of our ongoing movie.

There is an enliven-ness

to being

that is quite distinct

from the knowledge

gained from our awareness.

Crossing between

those two fields,

enliven-ness and awareness,

is a peculiar kind of integration.

Few savants can tell you

what they are doing

but it does not stop them

from doing their being.

Most of us are students

of our own personal school

of intimate self-process

which does not guarantee

declarable results

to an audience world.

Are we to learn

the ingredients to aliveness

and then follow

our own instructions?

Are we inadvertently learning

our own personal “tea ceremony”

of our self-unfolding

as our formal subjective path?

“Conscious repetition” will reveal

beyond the stated

or the accountable

or the rationally construed.

The “act of conscious habit”

will kneel

before the deep of being

without even an obvious beckoning.

Can self-awareness be an act,

an art,

or simply a result?

Every one is “full pour”

every second of their life.

Behavior is a living art form.

We all are of one

‘first-person’ consciousness

and not anything less

than transition into oneness

and the permission

to persist into that

as surrender

to an empathetic oneness

within . . .
