Other Side

Other Side
11/10/10

Buddhists talk of duality
overcoming our essential nature
by detaching from mind
that wants to analyze,
judge, find safe ground
to 'know' Dharma control,
an inherently masculine trait
which the feminine disrupts,
thus celibacy to repress
a woman's powerful influence,
leaving love at door
plus desire, authenticity, empathy,
for higher evolutionary consciousness,
though 'All is Tao'
even fear I experience
when vulnerably opening heart
into 'no guaranteed' unknown
feeling male 'life force'
connecting female other side.
