The Door into Summer

if the doors of perception 

were cleansed,

everything would 

appear as it is, indefinite.

no longer would you see stars

in the daytime,

the forest would 

not appear to be singing,

the water would be 

still and silent as glass.

without perception

 there is only truth,

and it is beautiful and 

terrible and dark:

when the doors of perception 

are cleansed,

nothing will seem to exist.

without any place to go 

or anyone to see or thing to do,

you will experience 

a vast and perfect contentment.

without need for 

effort or desire for action, 

you will simply be.
