Dalai Lama



I saw the Dalai Lama. 
found my way without getting lost
went despite of my insecurity 

Scared being amongst 30,000 yet alone  
but I did it 

As I sat next to an unnamed woman 
feelings of intimidation brewed 
it was not being in the presence of his holiness

He spoke as if we were equals about 
compassion
war
nuclear weapons
taking care of the environment

Now is the time to replace attachment with compassion

I listened as
he spoke of hope for tomorrow
