in Kathmandu, Nepal 2017

You think you’re cool?
Cool? I left you in the dust a century ago.
Maybe life-times ago.
Socrates was cool… Rousseau, Rasputin were cool.
Keith Richards is cool. Basho was cool.
Wally Whitman was way cool.
Would fuck anything that winked his way.
Singing stoned deviates are always cool.
I am cool.

Understand, let go
Suffer reality
Be here
There is buoyancy.
Sometimes without excuse
I explode with love.

Crow asks, “Ok, so what is reality? What’s real? What isn’t temporary and out-of-control, changing ceaselessly? Consider, what is consciousness? What is the unchanging center-point?”
