My Guru Says ...

My guru says:

watch the news

is an illusion 

and (don’t talk 

with your 

mouth full?)

don’t leave

crumbs on

the table

because “they”

(the people who

make ballpoint pens?)

will think 

you are 

a sloppy eater.

My guru says:

life is an illusion

(and maybe just 

for idiots)? but

illusion is 

never precisely 

defined by…

well … 

my guru.

My guru says:

comfrey is 

a great topical 

for pain (just 

not a great topic

for conversation?)

and pain is 

an illusion 

but it is 

trying to tell

you something.

My guru says:

fear of death

is an illusion

(just like life

only slower?)

and those 

who near death

are less afraid 

of dying (except

for “those” who

aren’t?).

My guru says:

a lot of things

but he still 

can’t clap with

one hand.
