Picking Cotton

Neither and both am I fused with confusion I remain happy in my infinite sadness night smiles upon the earth and the land, a chameleon crawling on my back changes it's tune and the wind does the same all is a pool of experience to be dived upon cold and heat to be eaten and to eat I walk through the fields without shoes only socks where I tread will be forgotten unlike the thread weaver who is woven from acres of cotton all of this is nothing new all of this is but one view imperious impostors are we only two eyes to see three dimensions of the illusion lit by the evening summer sky given legs to the shadows of the only day I shall ever know everything is true and about this- I lie

Additional Notes:
This poem was written almost exactly a year ago, before my experience with the temple. It has a more interesting perspective now.
