Way Seeking

Seeking the Way seems pointless
it can't be found by looking
just what am I hoping to find?

So how much moreso of non-Ways?
seeking all kinds of pleasure
leads to misery instead

Like sweeping sand into the ocean
to clean up the beach
I've wasted so much of my life
at both ends of that broom
what to do?

The middle of the broom
doing not-doing
seems a funny way of saying
surrender
to what already Is

because it has no source
that spring won't stop bubbling
miraculous!
feeding me and all beings
clear water with just a pinch of salt

Saying
if you want to find the Way
look at your feet
