I have been the Buddha heavy-lidded, bald refusing the world access to me I have been the Buddha leaning against the tree of wisdom and duty and all-surrounding beauty I have been the Buddha rejecting the body of me rejecting the body of you nearing the body of all I have been the Buddha re-entering where I left tumbling around in a clothes-dryer ridding myself of samsaric moisture I have been the Buddha bereft of kith and kin and kind soaking my toes in the enjoyment of nothing Bonaventure Saptel

I have been the Buddha
I have been the Buddha heavy-lidded, bald refusing the world access to me I have been the Buddha leaning against the tree of wisdom and duty and all-surrounding beauty I have been the Buddha rejecting the body of me rejecting the body of you nearing the body of all I have been the Buddha re-entering where I left tumbling around in a clothes-dryer ridding myself of samsaric moisture I have been the Buddha bereft of kith and kin and kind soaking my toes in the enjoyment of nothing Bonaventure Saptel
