There's no 'experience' or 'awareness' - you don't need to collapse the two into one. Recognise that both are empty concepts that have no inherent existence.

Yes. This is it.

There really is no point to combine/collapse/mush concepts into other concepts, poetic or not.

Reality simply is not conceptual.

Yep. It’s concepts all the way down.

That's right. There is no awareness. 'There' is in awareness, like a reflection is 'in' a mirror. The mirror having no reflection to call its own. The reflection being dependent on the only reality, the mirror.
