Sun, Moon and Truth

Posted on by Reena Saxena

I scout for eyeballs
on my journey through ether
blinking attention
lidless eyes watch but can’t speak
curtailed communication

“Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.” —Buddha

visibility
matters when I burn through minds
instigate action
Truth needs to make itself heard
Sun and Moon are silent lamps
