According to Buddha
In this very body, a fathom long, with its consciousness and perception I declare are the world, its cessation and the path that leads to the cessation of the world.
cowboy baby
with the top let back and the sunshine shining
cowboy baby
west coast chilling with the boone’s wine

riding at night cause i sleep all day
cowboy baby
i can smell a pig from a mile away

According to Buddha
Fools wait for a lucky day, but everyday is a lucky day for an industrious man.
carnival came by my town today
bright lights from giant wheels
fall on the alleyways
and i’m here
by my door
waiting for you

According to Buddha
The Buddha can stay in the realm of not-knowing, the realm of blissful non-attachment. The Bodhisattva vows to save the world, and therefore to live in the world of attachment, for that is also the world of empathy, passion, and compassion.
it’s been thirty summers that i’ve spent with him
and i expect thirty more to pass
he has blessed my life in so many ways
that i could never turn my back
