When lights are low
I can’t see so well the plans, the sheets
of paper with our itinerary to
Florida, Tennessee and back. In other
words, I can’t see into the future. Krishna
won’t illumine everything for us mortals.
He holds the right to be the only one to see
everyone at once.

I don’t aspire for tri-kala-jnana
but wish to be fearless and clean
each time I come to bat.

Today it was a piece of cake
to have tooth number thirty-one (lower
right) removed, required seven
stitches, which will dissolve by themselves.

Were you thinking of Krishna, uttering the
holy names, as he removed number thirty-one? No, I
forgot. I was holding tight in
preparation for minimum pain,
which was all that came.

Missed the chance to be with Him
in the dentist’s chair here and now.
