silent gills

in memoir of the silent gills, "circular repeat,"

your circularity is not a part of the mukti 

but a self-imposed repeat

calling yourself a Shīfu because you can balance upon a single leg

claiming both sides of the moon 

when you're the lunatic running a one-sided race

you're lost within because you've done too much exploring on your end, 

on retreat from reality,

paying rent to yourself

indeed you need two moons to form a half

dark means light means dark

and i can help you, but only if you help yourself

to see me without hue,

don't stop at 180°, continue,

above the threshold below my door

lies the pathway to the yang

the second you step we fuse,

as we always do

and say,

陰，

i loathe you.

楊，

我愛你 。
