Something that does not exist
cannot be shattered

High horse of my positions,
brittle presuppositions,
self justified opinions
don’t need to fall in shards about my feet

Look at this tender dissolution,
silent, swift dispersal
of all of those illusions –
the sure fulfillment
of the law of presence
which holds me ever safe
here in my truth.
