yesterday i was finally able to pick up my neo freerunner. when i opened the packaging, out fell an insert, quoting

Thirty spokes share the wheel’s hub
It is the center hole that makes it useful
Shape clay into a vessel
It is the space within that makes it useful
Cut doors and windows for a room
It is the holes which make it useful
Therefore benefit comes from what is there
Usefulness from what is not there.

the union of shunyata
and upaya
may sit.

of the earth & sky
the contradiction
the knowing-unknown
the precipitate of the realms

thanks tom. it’s brilliant, and dare i say (pause) sassy?

each bite feeds flora
they paint my insides’ rainbow
