The witness

A division worth keeping

Between mind and being

Leads to a witness state

The ground of the great

A mischievous ploy

In the mind’s employ

Keeps us outside the gate

Distance, it begins to create

We forget, purity of being

We’re taken sightseeing

There are thoughts on offer

For the seeker who’s a shopper

When divisions are erased

A new unity is embraced

The mind turns benign

The witness becomes divine
