tossed salad and scrambled eggs

#16689236 - 08/12/12 09:15 PM (9 months, 3 days ago)

Once the sound was
Twice the distraction
But no more
No more sound
No more laughter
No more trains at 6am
No more horns or sirens or screams
No more cheers or hiccups
No more
Can this be? Can such silence be?
How should I know?

It is said that in Silence
Deep within Silence
There lay answers.
But who hears them?
Sounds like make-believe.

But is it any different than
Hearing answers in the noise?
Answers to burning questions
Answers to how to live
The way to look
Who to respect
How to respect them
Oh it goes and goes
But is this not make-believe too?

Make an answer if you want
I am done with the distraction

Yeah and what's weird is that right after writing it out I started doing something I haven't in quite some time. I started fleshing out some potential psychology studies.

Is this a suicide note?

Wow, that was really well written. :congrats:

I'm honestly shocked. I feel like the ending kinda knocked me outta my chair. (Metaphorically :lol:

Did you get your title for your post from the Becker Theme Song?

Refraining from all evil, not clinging to birth and death, working in deep compassion for all sentient beings, respecting those over you and pitying those below you, without any detesting or desiring, worrying or lamentation - this is what is called Buddha. Do not search beyond it. - Dōgen

Your poem brought me to the depths of an experiential realm where the experiencer ceases to be yet a sense of self still remains eventually collapsing in on itself to the poor bag of meat that struggles tooth and nail to think words that are mere skeletons to a now vanishing knowing.
