east and west

whatever I share
in this poetry is what is already
singing in your heart –
That is why you get intoxicated the moment
you are here –
And I say again and again
You don’t have to saddle your horse or
buy a ticket to see the beloved -
Simply stop and gaze inside.
Let the east and west surrender
Let your doubt vanish
In your heart-fire,
Inside the depth of gratitude.
After all
the capacity and willingness to take down
your old house and receive
the new one is equally
given to you.
