the doors that open

June 13, 2008

life is the snap of a finger

compassion

comes from

recognizing suffering

allow the answer

the answer

is everything

and nothing

years of wind

shaped tree

atop a cliff

curvature

of the earth

buddha in a fishbowl

goldfish in the shadows

of his robe

a memory past.

to be present

unlocks all mysteries

scrubs and love

and coffee girls

yawns and eyes above a gulp

waiting looking

seeing eyes

blue and dark

like argentines

look within

look within
