Anatta!

(All that begins also ends.)
[I]
Woke to silence in a room that once echoed,
Memories pixelate, drift like dead snow.
A name’s just a symbol, a veil on the flame,
Falling from Kether, still whisperin’ shame.
Bones remember what the mind tries to sever,
No self to cling to, no soul that lives forever.
This breath, this glitch—already past,
The waveform fades, but the signal lasts.
[II]
Towers I built were ash in disguise,
Even the stars die behind their eyes.
Thought I touched truth in the spiral descent,
But the tree bends back where the lightning went.
Maya laughs with a mouth full of light,
Cracks in the code, still typing at night.
The now’s a blade with no edge or weight,
Cutting illusions at the gate.
[III]
Ink runs thin where the sutras bled,
I scroll through ghosts that the ego fed.
Malkuth murmurs through concrete veins,
Samsara hums beneath the trains.
All is flow, all is fade, all is form undone,
I trace the void and call it sun.
Stillness stutters in a fractured beat—
Even silence has a pulse beneath.
[IV]
What remains when the faces fall?
Dust on glass, a distant call.
Not here, not gone—just shifting skin,
A doorway drawn in everything thin.
The world forgets and that’s the vow,
I vanish slowly, even now.
Don’t mourn—just listen, just breathe—
We’re patterns moving through what leaves.
[V]
I remember my past lives, I remember what it’s like to die.
I remember my past lives, I remember what it’s like to die.
(With this, the work is complete.)
