"we are only passing through"
物の哀れ
This miniature garden landscape sculpted from rime will be gone by tomorrow. After days of heavy frost, rain is coming this evening, probably bringing lots of black ice before things warm up.

Summary of today's #Dharma talk:
In #BladeRunner Roy Batty says, "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe... Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion... I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to die."
What's wrong with everything being lost like tears in rain?

Where did that dog
that used to be here go?
I thought about him
once again tonight
before I went to bed.
