Kalachakra

                        Kalachakra,

 

                        i have walked your distances

                        the universe,

 

                        have found no spinning orb

                        of rock, no more

                        the sunbleached retina of ice,

 

                        a blue-grey circle

                        a waiting iris, rainbow-lost

                        an ever-dilated consciousness

 

                        packed and shored against

                        the tide-worn sands.
