A THINKING MACHINE'S INCAPABILITY OF UNDERSTANDING ITS OWN END

1

The human mind can't comprehend

it's own non-existence;

an organic thinking machine

never at rest -

how could it visualize

itself stopped and decaying,

the world outside

(whose reality it so often pondered)

going on, complete and whole

without the one

it sees as the top of the Chain of Being?

2

Learned monks

and mystics

seeking 'non-existence';

all you seek

is death,

termination

of all that meditation,

koans and poems

of God as Lover.

It comes to all,

oblivion, dear

seekers of inner peace.

But inner peace?

Peace like a star

collapsing

under its own weight

into a black hole,

vanishing

from the universe.

What peace

is there

in singularity,

in death?
