Man is trapped in his self

Main main. (I  …I)

When this trap breaks

It is you… you.

 

There are very few

Who go beyond this extremity

When main (I) and you cease

It is He He He…

 

Actually it is He who existed

Before Main (I) and You

And He will stay

When I and You are blown away

 

You are the Buddha

If you can see through

Your own face

Or in the face of you.
