Meditation at Trader Joe

Second draft, with wallet
At least I remembered the trash

Mantra:
Weetabix, eggs
Multigrain Oats

The goal of yoga is Personal
unification with the Divine
which may as well be achieved
by corporeal means
such as eating

Like the elephant in the story
who jumped off a mountain
because he felt sorry
for the travelers in the desert
who ate him and survived

I am no Buddhist

Love may be found
where you least expect it
pipes in the muzac

The checkout girl does not ask:
Did you find everything ok?
How are you doing?

Instead
she looks appreciatively
at my coffee beans

More coffee
might help
with focus

I smile
