somehow i keep thinking
i should be doing more--
Quick!
before all life
elapses
what have i done so far?
certainly not as much
as i could have
but what
for?
must we always strive?
isn't buddha stasis the goal
simply exist in the moment?
all i seem to want now
is
to want something
more
instead i'm content
to stare at the back
of a cat's head on a day
when staying warm and dry
is
achievement enough
--but the spell is
broken
by a trip to seattle
first time venturing forth
in 10 days, i'm becoming
a barnacle, stuck in place
