Bardo

He stood within a night to catch the fray
Of dark and clouds apart that rent and spun
Upon the rushing brightness of a day
Stupendous in its thrill and one  
Within him and outside with space time bent
Where sunburst seen displayed itself to him 
And looming sky and ground within the rent
Sustained their light as all else then dropped dim - 
All was forgotten and the rent redeemed
When as he crawled or stumbled like a child
Or as he walked or limped and all that seemed
Again devolved into the endless wild
And rapid choices to be made once more
When shadows rush towards a sunburst door.
