Buddha taught
that life is an illusion
as did
the Beatles
so after a nap
I woke up
facing the gate
in my mind
of this teaching
and instead
of not getting hung up
I got nervous
thinking that this reality
as I know it
is not real
so here I am now
on this paradigm of illusion
called the computer
and sometimes
the only way
to pass through
these Dharma gates
is to forget about them.
