Late last night, I dreamed a lucid dream of endless circles
Deep within that magic realm where dull ideas sparkle.
.....
Wildly, I was swept among the circles as they hurled
Out across the undiscovered countries of their world.
.....
Soon, I found that if I tried to imitate their spin,
I could lose myself inside the endlessness of Zen.
.....
Secrets of the universe were then revealed to me
As I grinded with the gears that turned reality.
.....
Just when I could take no more, the circles fell away
And sunlight made me squint my eyes to face a bright new day.
