sad-eyed puppy dog

Lately I’ve been rather light-heartedly saying, “I’ve rented a room I’ve never seen from a man I’ve never met in a town I know no one.” A Koan-like choice of words. Yet Saturday morning on the meditation cushion I became filled with an experience of vast loneliness.

Here’s my old mentor Frenchie stepping to the microphone – “I don’t know nothing about nothing.”

That.
