Subject: Dinosaur Footprint on La Quinta Inn Chair

Dinosaur Footprint on La Quinta Inn Chair http://www.alansondheim.org/dinosaur.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/dinosaur.mp3 accompanied by overly quiet shakuhachi in La Quinta Inn structure: I meditate on the weight of a small dinosaur in a silted lakebed in the Pioneer Valley, Mass. I meditate on the ratio of the time taken to make the impression and the time since then. I think about the compression of my own body against the chair, playing shakuhachi. I meditate on forms of life and the comfort of lifeforms and familiarity with the world. I meditate on the world. I persist.
