Death Row at the Dentists



I'm in death row at the
dentist's office totally not
accepting the idea of wel-
coming, pain as a caring
friend, instead drugged
with valium so I can just
sleep. Am I chicken or wise?
We shall see.

The dentist is ur friend.

Leaf Rustling Down Driveway



Today I got hearing aids
and was chased by a lea-
f rustling down the bla-
ck driveway. And today
dear ones left the earth.
I'm not sure if my ears
waking & others leaving ear-
th is connected. We'll see.

he had a hole in his

Too Many Ideas



A long day. First I heard
a dharma talk on silence.
I decided not to ever fill
up the page in my draw-
ings. Then he told how
his dog grabbed his hand
through his mail slot, so
I said that would be my
drawing except then we
were talking hummers &
I said they kick ass &
he said that should be
my drawing and now
with so many great art
ideas floating in my th
ick skull I feel absolut-
ely impotent tonight as a
potentially practing artist.

V day



V day is a great day because
it's about love, which, when
we ignore unpleasant junk,
is truly what keeps us
alive.

Help Desk



I lost my patience with
a help desk person who
could not understand me.

"Why am I

I asked
him.

He

2morrow



    very
The ^ old woman said, "oh,
no automatic door." I
wondered if this was
an enlightened view of
her exit from earth.

(Note: The woman in the doctor's office complained to her daughter that the door wasn't automatic. It first struck me funny how we judge the world based on our own needs. Then I saw how close she was to leaving earth, and how much pain she was it. Old age for some is a difficult journey.)

The Bright Side



This is one of those

hat it would be like
to have a job and no
time to pay attention
to all that is goofy.

Muse



I waited 2 minutes 4
inspiration. Then 4 more
minutes. Well, f..k it. I'll
do something any how.

P.S. I'm now the proud owner of two basketballs.

Now a dilemma. Do I take a basketball or my camera to the park?
