the life within you
may go on forever.
You,
however,
will not be invited.

Without even
putting forth a modicum
of effort,
the human eye
can see across
vast distances.
Is that what passes
for insight
at present?
You call that clever?
You call passivity
enlightened?

Congratulations: heaven
exists.
It is a state
of consummate equivalence.
In it,
there's no difference
between remembering
and being remembered,
between loss
of all motor function
and making
a fist.
