Early morning.
Vaking upp!
To a light and what?

What meaning?

In nooks and corners
Cold remains:
Flowers of the plum

Snowy winter night
Winds crashing into the coast
Today, a warm sun
When walking, standing, sitting, lying down, speaking,
being silent, moving, being still.
At all times, in all places, without interruption - what is this?
One mind is infinite kalpas.

I begin to pee
Not knowing why
Into the wind
Generation's shall pass, our determination shall grow, at the foot of Mount Fuji
Like smoke that reaches far beyond the clouds.--nichimoku shonin. Third high priest of Nichiren Shoshu

O hydrangea-
You change and change
Back to your primal color

Stepping outside after practice:

Exhale frozen breath,
Stars in the sky, endless space
Endless gratitude
When walking, standing, sitting, lying down, speaking,
being silent, moving, being still.
At all times, in all places, without interruption - what is this?
One mind is infinite kalpas.

Pizza and cold beer,
Damn it’s frosty outside now,
The show’s almost done.

Shifting patterns,
moving slowly.

All takes time..
The forest is deep.

Inside animals.
You can hear them?

Here and there,
cats and dogs.

What will become?

Today some windy wether.
Listening to radio.
In Kiev it is calm.

What a wether? Where to go?

Waking up to flutes.

In life that is as a dream..

Under the uprising sun.
Looking out.
Wondering.

Where did the sounds go?
