What Path, Indeed?

by Joe Cramer

My fraility becomes my economy.

I remain fraught

With the notion of where

My place is in this world.

I no longer know anymore

Seeking the path

That does not lead to enlightenment.

What reincarnation does a snail have?

What path, indeed?

The slow sweet fragile path...and don't get stepped on! MFS

...fraility becomes your economy *ba-BING!*...tight on existentialism, and touche on the direction of non-direction, a lil' tao istic...grins...peace, chaz

i remember in my buddhism class, i learned that a life as a human is a rare turn of the dice...one in a million. it's your one chance to make the best of it and reach nirvana. the comfort is knowing that you will simply be reincarnated. a snail, perhaps. but we do what we can.
