    the ongoing want   
      
        i.e. lack   
      
     of ex-perience   
      
      is solved by   
      
     turning around   
      
            ~   
      
       of *course*   
     everything in a   
     made-up reality   
       is made-up   
      
            ~   
      
   for the life of me   
   i can't understand   
     how anything i   
   write could matter   
         to you   
      
   it's just gibberish   
     thoughts coming   
   to mind not unlike   
   waves meeting shore   
      
    as meaningful as   
   any of the bubbles   
         thereof   
      
   and gone as quickly   
    as they appeared   
      
            ~   
      
    said another way   
      
      mind "is" the   
      seeming shore   
      
   upon which thoughts   
     seemingly crash   
        and foam   
      
            ~   
      
       the seeming   
   problem: conflating   
     re-flection and   
        re-ality   
      
            ~   
      
       one of the   
       appearances   
     is a subject of   
   not-subject object   
       appearances   
      
    all are thoughts   
      
     aka re-flection   
      
      aka mind only   
      
     aka the seeming   
         mirror   
      
            ~   
      
   identification with   
     the mind object   
     deemed subject   
    of the other mind   
   objects is abiding   
   in the mirror/mind   
      
       abiding in   
      awareness is   
     remaining aware   
    of awareness and   
     its mirror/mind   
        game/play   
      
            ~   
      
    "in what attitude   
     of mind should   
    it be diligently   
      explained to   
       others? not   
      assuming the   
    permanency or the   
   reality of earthly   
     phenomena, but   
    in the conscious   
       blessedness   
      of a mind at   
    perfect rest. and   
    why? because, the   
    phenomena of life   
     may be likened   
      unto a dream,   
      a phantasm, a   
    bubble, a shadow,   
     the glistening   
    dew, or lightning   
     flash, and thus   
    they ought to be   
     contemplated."
