Consciousness Is

Plants in green grass

Consciousness is-

A self-molding mold.

A mold molding a mold,

Molding a mold endlessly.

These are the sides of a mold:

Now, up, down, left, right, time, space, 

Matter, man, language, identity, 

Society, color, sound, feel,

The past and the future.

Consciousness is-

A self-shaping shape.

A shape shaping a shape, shaping

A shape, endlessly.

Consciousness is-

A self-labeling label.

A label labeling a label, labeling

A label, endlessly.

Before you make a label,

The label has already made you.

Each new label may be a scratchy signal 

Of the original. But to know yourself,

Is to know the essence of the original label.
