comfy
how did you think
that I would not know
what you are doing
said the Karmapa; of
course: and I had been
acting despite that he
might, so I dropped it
all like a past life and
nipped down to the
dank basement to
sort things out pursued
by his head-shake smile;
carried his drinks
in the café, carried his
bags when he carried out
the stacked dishes before
I even thought of it,
simple service with no
career prospects, all the
busy and long day until
things moved on beyond
all recognition and
I realised I was wearing
his slippers; how will I
get them back to him,
remembering his lingering
smile before I acted
retirement #4: from a dream had 16th-17th December, written down 171216; the present Karmapa is the 17th recognised incarnation; the sorry tale of Mark Redford and his Teachers; the forwarding ways
