When studying Zen
in Minneapolis,
the Roshi
referred to mind
as a monkey,
but later
in Ann Arbor,
Sunim
referred to mind
as Buddha,
so,
since I like monkeys
and think they are Buddhas, too,
I love the mind,
even if it can be
a pain in the ***, sometimes.

"First thought - Enlightened thought! Second thought - Buddha thought!" - Samu Sunim

Thoughts don't seem
to be so good
but they probably
actually are.
