Found Koan Poetry -- with special thanks to VP Harris and the speechifiers upon whose shoulders she stands 
Con/Jur/d, 4/30/2023

"I think it's very important,” as do we, to hollow out this moment, to de-couple
 future & past, to topple hierarchies of importance, to be unadorned, free

“for us at every moment in time & certainly this one” & this one & this one
a chain binding our heads back & our feet forward, straining against this tether

“to see the moment in time in which we exist & are present &” The Teacher
said, “Stop worrying about being in the moment -- you have no other choice”

“to be able to contextualize it — to understand where we exist in the history, ” 
& We breathe out and take a breath in -- what else do we need from history?

“& in the moment — as it relates not only to the past but the future,” a beautiful 
summary of how the Mystery & the Poem & the Way arise in this World

“So -- as you have heard from so many leaders,” the Teacher, throws his staff
over the shoulder & heads into the mountains -- We call out “Wait for us!”
