Lone Man

Lone Man 2011-11-01T15:14:24-07:00


He walks freely in the world,
And goes just one way.
From the eternal past to the eternal future,
He is alone,
No one accompanies him.
If you ask him how old he is,
He will look at you with a smile,
And point to the endless sky.

Jakushitsu (translated by Nyogen Senzaki)
