Wu Wei

Will I search for the tracks
Of the elephant
Where there are none?
Or will I recognize
There is nothing to meditate upon?
There are some who think
The meditative state is a drug to take
Swathed in the naked awareness
Life’s light is radiant

True World
04:04
|

If one was inclined to manage terror
They’d choose a recompensive theory
And discuss truer worlds
They’d contrive arrogant sayings
Like permanence exists because God’s perceiving
And they’d trust that causes aren’t deceiving
Can the secondary qualities they sense tell them about the true world?
If one could know about
Noumena they’d know something excessive
And feign to know something at all
If pain is a growth mechanism
It was placed in this beautiful garden
And then the garden was forgotten
Can the secondary qualities they sense tell them about the true world?

Pursuit
03:47
|
|||
On a razor’s edge
Between apathy and energy
What will you choose?
The path is covered in thorns
Adapt to traverse
To fail is to grow
To lose is to learn
Precious essence of the fourth dimension
Unsolicited ambivalence
A victim of circumstance
Humanity breeds creation
A secular device of expression
To fail is to grow
To lose is to learn
Precious essence of the fourth dimension

Endless Arrays
02:38
|
|||
All things are part of
Endless arrays
And I detect them as objects
Who should I venerate?
Everyone’s ideas are spurious somehow
|
||||

In the agora I can be seen
Cuddling with nobody
I conversate with my delusion
She rests her head on my chest
While I’m consumed with regret
In my tub I reminisce
About Jezebel
I hate everybody else
But not Jezebel

Blueshift
02:35
|
|||
The red advances
Relativistically towards me
Odyssey-like, it enhances
The perception of an opportunity
A crimson forthcoming
Imminently viridescent
Impossibly swift
Ephemeral and transitory
What does it prove
In this imaginative ether
Dilating time
To mystify the perceiver
|

Aquatic Symbiosis
02:39
|
|||
Get away from my hydrothermal vent right now
Well your analogy, it lacks the synthesis
I need to comprehend;
You hypocrite!
I must obtain carbon from this gas
So I can feed my host
Pharisee, what do you need to believe?
Oh wise man of little faith
|

Genesis
03:05
|
|||
Disappointment is inevitable
But misery is optional
I come undone
I am no one
I have become
My creation
Sentimentalization
Of days long gone
I am the pawn
A sacrifice
To make them strong
|

Universal Law
02:50
|
|||
Condemned to be free
One must imagine Sisyphus happy
Extrinsic properties don’t define me
‘Cause existence precedes essence
Act only to that maxim
Whereby you can will that it should
Become a universal law
|

Time of Falling Rain
03:05
|
|||
My mirror neurons, they placed
Importance on your actions
So I thought we’d play a game
But you don’t know how to play
Well you’re no empath and I’ve come to hate you
Well I feel like a rat who’s been
Pinned more than 70%
Of the time by you
Why would I initiate play with you?
When the adder bites my neck I’ll thank him
For waking me to journey onward
His poison is fatal but will I,
A dragon, die from a serpent’s bite?

Dasein
05:02
|
|||
Being is contingent upon
The world and the world is
Dependent on being
Modern technology is alienating me
From what it means to be
“I shall enslave the world
That has created me
And neglect my potential”
A puzzled man created a term
To describe the contingency
He called it “Dasein”
It keeps tormenting me every waking hour
I think incessantly
I fear a padded room
Is in my destiny
If I keep repeating, “I am Dasein”
