sychronized sentience (dharma's dance)

When a wooden man breaks into song,
a stone woman gets up to dance.
Since this cannot be understood by
reasoning,
How can it be analyzed? 
Tung-shan Liang-chieh (807-869)

woman on a chair (a study in black)



a woman on chair
 sits alone
black hat - simplest dress, black
 stacked tables, black chairs
vacant
 mind, unmoved hand
sits there
 I watch stilled towards black
a days shadow
 soft air

 traces....times movements
times mark
marked black
  I await glimpse a face
a glance - un-
shared

a woman on chair
 alone sits
in black, reticent
remote
 I take leave of
my stare - step away from the
black, woman
unaware

- but "O"


the way i see it
is that cha"O"s can be
an healthy exercise in a singularities
evolution, as

evolving requires a
mutant ninja heartbeat and miscalculation of
RNA to DNA resulting in prize of
idiots and Sunday savants
- but "O" is that
show biz-arre, after all
weathered wisdom has dinosaurs strutting the streets
of Manhattan and blue footed bubis
stalking a Gaga
with  portfolio
