Solitary cloud in an empty sky
Empties itself of air
Arbitrary crowd that an empty eye
Empties itself to stare.

Blank is the mind that stares up high
Looking to find a thought
Rank is the mind that looks down low
Looking to blind a spot

Look straight ahead, not up or down
And make yourself quite still
Don’t seek to find, just speak a mind
Whose blankness will not spill.

Blanketed in perfect peace,
You’ll sit in ease and find release!
