PARADOX LOST

Lose yourself in so-called real life
and find yourself and Self there
---great faith
because the loss of yourself
---great doubt
is the finding of the Self
and when we find what we find
that's a gainful loss
If we could but see
---our mind a mirror bright
that myriad things happen in paradox
---let no dust alight
because paradox mysterious
is the wondrous paradigm
---illusionary is the mirror bright
though paradoxically
 there is no permanent paradigm
---where can the dust alight?
except, perhaps, the Self
who is seeking to lose and gain itself
