Cleaning out the Temple
Did Jesus cleanse the temple to punish disrespect of God? Or was it to wake the rest of us from our spiritual slumbers?

What Comes Before
Everything began as something else.
Sand. Water. Ocean. Planet. Sun.
Even these eyes that record it all.
What was I before flesh but grass?
What was I before grass but earth?
What was I before earth but flesh?
Tao alone has no antecedent.
Tao has no history and no future.
Even in impermanence,
we, too, are Tao.

Half and Half
The horizon is always
at eye level.
Half earth. Half sky.
No matter where we move,
up or down, left or right,
ahead or back,
the horizon fills our view.
Half earth. Half sky.
Even when it lies hidden
by storms or mountains or forests,
the horizon remains constant.
Half earth. Half sky.
The universe is full
of metaphor.
