How to Open

You will never be promoted to total freedom
in this ordinary way of living for yourself.
But rejoice, because you are not chained
to an external platitude, your identity.
Everyone takes two breaths, then goes to one.

Men and women have worked a land
belonging to no one.
Their identities submerged until eyes open.
Only to find, there was no closing.

Can it be that this one thing never hidden,
is my only song today?

Four men walk out on a bridge.
One sits and begins fishing.
One stares out at the horizon in meditation.
One lowers himself into the water.
The last one never was.
Find them in yourself.

The unique expression of it lives on!
Singularity is not tied to identity.
Singularity is simply motion.
