in place of the sun

in place of the sun
or the moon
in our town,
we have the
empire state to the
north, the one
world trade
to the south.
in place of the
tranquility of
non-attachment
,
we have anchored
ourselves in the
center divvying
up a flood
of memories

life’s truths

they don’t air condition

they don’t air condition
dreams like they used to.
stepping through sleep
offers little, if any,
relief. stop stirring,
and ataraxia
will find you

they never tell you

they never tell you
that the trick to riding in
a carriage
is to
be absolutely zen-like –
at peace within
while the world bumps
without –
to lull oneself
into a persistent
tranquility, or
at the very least,
blend in
.
