buddha size of my mouth

buddha size of my mouth

buddha the size of my brain

buddha outside too 

morning snow melted

--

today it rains

today it rains

buddha in my mouth

by my teeth 

buddha on your arm

*

fine fine fine

i have no courage 

have no superstition

live in faith

all my beliefs 

emerge from 

direct experience

thus i am brave

every idea of mine

such a fine thing

such a fine fine thing

fine fine fine

a buddha is home/ you think you are away

 a buddha is home
you think you are away 
or the other is away
never not at home

**

a buddha / is not walking softly

a buddha
is not walking softly
or heavily 
in your head
