Handle turned not out but in
Path began beneath the skin
World outside could not define
Depths where true horizons shine
Knock dissolved to quiet hum
Noise surrendered stillness come
Inner floor held polished grain
Silent rooms dissolved the pain
Not a fortress not escape
Not retreat to rigid shape
Inward door revealed the vast—
Breath expanded past the past
Doors to truth face inner hall
Open there you open all
Turn toward self with gentle spin—
Every world begins within
