ashes of whom



a temple in kyoto, july 2026


jianyuan tapped the coffin and asked, "alive or dead?" daowu replied, "i won't say alive, i won't say dead." blue cliff record, case 55




ashes of whom

laid to to rest


rainwaters


tomorrow's rest


the time of

who is gone

is now


travels

entrusted to urns

kept safe


of names' erring

what do they


do we know
