Street art ~ Cowtown AB ~ September 2020
According to Buddha
Ultimately you live simultaneously in all of the planes of consciousness all the time, so that in a way, it’s like a vertical cut up – you look at somebody, they’re there; they’re not there.

the little things ~ Western Development Museum ~ Moose Jaw, SK ~ a year or so ago.
According to Buddha
I don’t really believe anything I say. Because the nature of my work concerns the spaces between the words, rather than the words themselves.
jump in, let’s go
lay back, enjoy the show
everybody gets high, everybody gets low,
these are the days when anything goes
everyday is a winding road
i get a little bit closer
everyday is a faded sign
i get a little bit closer to feeling fine

yesterday, just after dark…sunrise ~ Etown ~ July 2020
According to Buddha
Be courageous and discipline yourself.
Work. Keep digging your well.
Don’t think about getting off from work.
Submit to a daily practice.
Your loyalty to that is a ring on the door.
Keep knocking, and the joy inside
will eventually open a window
and look out to see who’s there.
who can it be knocking at my door?
best off if you hang outside
don’t come in, i’ll only run and hide
who can it be now?
who can it be now?
who can it be now?
who can it be…

According to Buddha
There’s a mess inside you:
You clean the outside.
why don’t you ask him if he’s going to stay?
why don’t you ask him if he’s going away?
why don’t you tell me what’s going on?
why don’t you tell me who’s on the phone?

little things along the way ~ Etown ~ June 2020
According to Buddha
Don’t treat yourself so gingerly; you can let go of stuff. Sometimes it takes three breaths instead of two to do it, but you can do it. Be a little tougher and don’t cling to stuff. People go around carrying everybody’s stuff all of the time. I just pick it up and put it down. Pick it up and put it down.
right now, right now
love is everywhere
right now, right now
love is everywhere
