Departing the Tao

A Poem by Cutter

No-thing,
    No-mind;
Wu-Wei sitting patiently
                without patience....
Speaking but breathing silence,
living, yet No-life....
                          Being, not being....
Action, giving birth,
departing the No-being.
Bringing forth Tai Chi.
Movement,
       essence.... A journey begun,
A thought compelled, a path considered....
A path walked upon.
      Beginnings.
