10,000 Mile Railroad Track

Submitted for the "Year of the Dragon", Febuary 4th, 2000. A sijo poem.

Ekayana--One vehicle
(Non-Consiousness)
Search for.

Last one out, 10,000 buddas,
City changed the "Door" out!

Five years old as Rory Calhoune.
Callaway went "That-a-Way".

Mystery, Non-Existence;
by Hsuan-tsang,
Mere-Consiousness.

Discovered one mo. before
publish date, search 20 yrs.

First Card, recieved for purchase
rebate coupon for free pie.

In a dream delivered from
west to east, oceans rain storm.
Wei-Wu-Wei, action of non-action
Without thoughts, ashes grey.
Braided rope, Shinto Shrine.
Sitting still. The secret way.

Journey end, Dharma Temple
Laksana, found Asat.
Game Ended, Continuous, endlessly:
in my own den.
Quit chasing the sun from the sky;
sky set, moons gone, arriving home.

Year of the Dragon 2000
