Bright sun clear sky mind

..A north coast morning. Bright sun and clear sky. Black coffee.. steam rising...
last night practice was like kayaking the Tsangpo. Raging river of thought..
I entered the shrine room (my bed room) in the dark to not wake my wife. After sitting for a few minutes the eyes adjust and I see four black spots before the shrine on the floor..

... Dog shit....

after returning to my seat from cleanup, car sits outfront music going
another passes by b-boom-b-booming base
then turns heading west..

.. heading west my mind runs to California, hopes of seeing Rinpoche in January..
two of them actually, young and old
I can see them smiling
