No one can drink the water of a mirage

~Zen Master Han Shan

~~AND SO?

What crosses the horizon,

Looking like pure emptiness?

This bright and shimmering world

Differs not from brilliant jade.

~Basho

OK…so I saw “Spring Breakers”…..Ummmmm…not impressed. His worst film, by far. Boring/sexist/sophmoric.

Look upon the ruins,
Of the castle of Delusion,
Haunted now only by the spirits of those who perished,
A scene of carnage,
Born of consuming desire,
Never changing,
Now and throughout Eternity…
