We mean members of the forum / community in general, or in other words anyone posting, but as you can see in Jundo’s post, newcomers get a pass for a while [emoji1] . It’s more than anything an invitation to be mindful of our words. Of course, we are grateful that you’re willing to support this initiative [emoji3526] [emoji1374]

Mea culpa. I am reading this a few weeks after joining you. My introduction post was a blabby three paragraphs.

It’s totally fine. We get a pass when we’re brand new and finding our way around! [emoji3526]

I am calm poetry. My life has changed. I’m not sure how. I write with heart, that means that you get to know me better with poetry! Furthermore, I have learned to weep with Ground Zero and nuclear Holocaust which my country waged on the country of Japan. Jundo, please forgive me now; my poetry is about heart.

Reason: add truth
For me, zen has been about relinquishing my poetry, which has been influenced by intoxicants. Now my poetry is about heart, and it is time to relinquish all intoxicants slowly without detox sudden, which would kill me. And, become one of 90% who feel no neck pain and place the last brick in the wall, giving up the last of intoxicants! Practice zazen as it is meant to be practiced, with reality. My next poetry, a novel, shall be about Family who represent sobriety.

It is is a time to refrain, maybe two or three lines in my posts, maybe one or two or seldom three posts each day, or two or one poem, or no poem when I post, when I do not post, zazen each morning, Shikantaza.
