The Journey to the West

Though we journey to the West We pray to the East More or less that's the way Each day begins and ends It’s a tale everyone ...

Meditation in the Parking Lot (aka Dashboard Buddha)


Sitting in a parked car
The Dude and
The Zen Master
On my lap reading
A passing reference
To the Sixth Patriarch

And quite suddenly
I realized yeah
Everything
Is connected
In a Kevin Bacon
Sort of way 
Here at the intersection
Of Hollywood and Divine

That's the charm
Of American Zen
Where entertainment
And Enlightenment
Become almost
Interchangeable

With The Dude
On my lap here
In the parking lot
From Sea Hunt to
To Huineng
It's clear as far
As an eye in
A parked car 
Can see
