Or Was It Several Centuries?

Jerry Garcia / David Grisman: So What...12/17/90

I took my pill at eleven.
I spent several minutes
or was it several centuries?
not merely gazing
at those bamboo legs,
but actually being them,
or rather being myself in them,
or, to be still more accurate
(for I was not involved
in the case,
nor in a certain sense
were they)
being my Not-self
in the Not-self
which was the chair.
