Before consciousness
in the warm wet womb
the sound of blood rushing and heart beat
Mother's breast enlarge to the crying baby
no matter how far
or many years
Walkers walk in the dank forest dripping dew
in cacophony
wind song played trees
Sailors in oceans deep
creak of timbers whale call
and screeching gull
when thought becalmed
Monks mountains atop
seek silence
in cold caves of consciousness
their thundering hearts
intercede
or the original version?
Before consciousness
the sound of the heart
Walkers in the woods hear trees
Sailors ocean waves and whale calls
Monks seeks silence
in the cold caves of conscious
can't achieve nirvana
the sound of his heart intercedes
