While eating hot dogs with louie out at noyo harbor yesterday
speaking of the ebbing and flowing of tides how the moon can turn you inside out
make iconic and meaningless our meanderings our tenacity our failings louie quotes an old zen koan that goes something like this
one must stay awake while falling down the well
perhaps you’d find a handle in there to grab as you fall or land on the proverbial donkey’s back there may be a spike of jagged metal at the bottom waiting to impale
your already beatotshit heart and there may just be a pool of calm water bathed in light you just really don’t know do you but I suppose if you are awake you’ll remember what inspired you to become human the next time around.
