The Zen of Dish Washing
Your brush and sponge
are weapons, learn to use them
as if you were performing
the kata of an apprentice ninjutsu
just because a
dish is greasy
does not mean that
you cannot feel a
deep connection
utensils are
tools that are the
mark of civilization
treat them lovingly
speaking of love:
lemon is love, and
pine-scented fragrances
every dish, saucepan,skillet
is a receptacle may
respond to your
touch differently
whatever you
caress with your mind
will melt, dissolve
the sink
so clean: a philosophical
conundrum where
all that dirt went.
