If you open like a pinhole
eternity will wait an eternity’s length
to dribble-drabble in;
If you open like an earthquake rupture
eternity will still take an eternity’s time –
but the receiving! The receiving!

Before tackling the to-do list
You know the source of your life
so start by connecting with the source of your life;
follow the path of “sustainable”

yet how often it is worshiped
