Silver Dharma Moon

By johntaiyu




They don't like these zen poems
near as much
as the ones
about sex or drinking.

I get lots of kudos for those,
but these here
where open hearts and mist
is about all that happens
just don't seem
to get people's attention.

I should try a car chase
through fields of pompous grass
under the silver dharma moon

It'd never end.

    k, i think i see where you're coming from. no one stops to smell the roses anymore, we only look for computer graphics. we need diamonds when glitter should be enough. i almost blew this off, but i'm glad i didn't.

    intriguing. I enjoy these writes immensely though, their slow-paced, insightful ponderings speak to me a lot more than the usual writes that seem to litter DP these days.

    I know what you mean. I respect a person however who stays focused and doesn't die out for attention. Very Karmalicious write.
