felt like
a meteor
blazing into
earth’s atmosphere,
scorched &
out of
his element
but a
beautiful sight
to behold
for those
standing on
the ground
below.

in my

God put

figure out
what to
do
with me.

he realized
that even
the autistic
& the
deaf dumb
& blind
were more
connected to
society than
he was
& perhaps
only
suicides were
less connected.
Then he
opened the
refrigerator
& stared
in at
the brand
name products.

It means he

See how

Buddhism is?
