Loss of Concentration





Sparkle!
Whoops, here I go
                              again. 
The shadows
     of the maple
          contrasting the torii
               on this cold
                    this crisp
                         this perfect
winter day.
                          Twinkle!
Oh no.  Not another link
to research
on the far reaches
of the InterWorld.
“Will it enhance my life?”
I always feel it will.
All knowledge is

Enhancement

fills this moment,
anticipates the next,
and chronicles the past.
Sort of a sparkly,
                                     distracting,
existentialism,
but with
(wait for it)
enhancement.

Welcome, and Namaste

Greetings fellow travellers,

For you American friends visiting, you will notice that this old Canadian uses Canadian English in this blog: kindly bear with me. As I blog primarily on subjects that are vitally interesting to me, I appreciate all feedback.

As I tend to be a bit of a language usage freak, I will, as required, edit obscenity and rude comments. That said, I welcome your opinions and discussion.

May your Dharma be clear

Peace

"If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:
That you have but slumb'red here,
While these visions did appear."
