PARALLEL CONCEPT
What is here is one thing:
that is everything,
nothing exists apart from that:
Your inhale and my exhale are parallel:
My inhale and your life is parallel:
Clouds move, we all are in parallel:
Our breathing move the Sun in parallel:
My writing "the now is" is and all others in parallel:
"The now is" in here and "the now is" elsewhere is parallel:
My erasing chalk writing and my garden sprout in parallel:
Without needing to know all, nor ignore all is parallel:
The wonders of this world and the tabletop dust are parallel:
that is everything,
nothing exists apart from that.
