it was conversation
things were said
thinking passing through
and so, this:
the incarnation is
the resurrection
being-born is
passing through
non-being
into existence
standing out
appearance
Christ is revealed
as God as man
once so, no
reversal, being-born
is where beyond-being
entered into standing-out
now, standing-within
and standing-out coincide
this coincidence, this
uncaused manifestation
contains and encompasses
all semblance of opposite
until, no-other appears
and with no-other what we
call sin cannot abide

separation becomes the illusion
of erroneous belief
(are all beliefs erroneous?)
rather, direct experience
reveals our neighbor
as ourself, until (uh-oh) we
believe other-unwisely
rather, self-secluded
enclosed and suffocating --
no, no -- re-surrect, breathe
through, breathe through
breathe through this Being
