DILEMMA

In forgetfulness of being I immerse myself

in the tempestuous waters of life

which expands its triumphant powers

in the veils of deceit: the existence.

To be or to exist; behold the arcane dilemma:

either I am without qualities and attributes,

or I get lost in the kaleidoscope

of thousand mutant forms and colors

when I confuse my being with the thoughts

who flock unceasingly to the mind

displaying the panoplies of worlds

in play and avatars of existence.

But if the din stops in consciousness

everything becomes zero and fades

and now I am, the potential for all;

no longer there are vessels, water only

without color or shape, in purity at the source.
