A CLOSE SHAVE






A Close Shave
is not what i need
(i'm not very hairy) -
but it takes a hell of a shock
to knock a person out of
that boneweary Buddhahood-now!
kind of feeling

"Life is pretty disappointing,"
i think to myself,
as the memory of each epiphany
fades into the dark threat
of apocalypse

"But let's keep going,"
i tell my friends,
"in case death turns out
exactly the same."
