What is the difference between eating and being eating? Between walking and being walking? Between sleeping and being sleeping? Between working and being working?
Eat. Walk. Sleep. Work. Are these what I do? Or what I become in doing?
I grew up in Christian fundamentalism, went to hell, came back, became a Presbyterian then a Buddhist Presbyterian, and now I'm a profane Presbyterian Zen Taoist -- not that I'm into labels or anything. Here's what I've learned so far: The more you know, the more you know you don't know.

Syncronicity
What have tanks
To do with flamingoes,
Or baby grand pianos
Strafed on sand banks?
Climb inside the metaphor,
That protective bubble
Of a space capsule
Like insects in camphor.
Have faith in associations
For novelty of surprise.
Metaphysics of the hive
Develop into religions.
