When you can’t stand
your life one second
longer, this is what
you must do:
Get out of bed.
Put on clean underwear.
Put on that dress with
The green buttons and
stripes of blue.
Look out at the morning
With its expectant face
and withered leaves
Set your feet down
on the carpet. It
doesn’t matter if the
carpet is frayed yellow
Just find the patch
of sun on it where
you would lay if
you were a cat and
draw a circle around it.
This is your
mandala for the day
Study it.
