The Highest Truth

I arrived
at the Highest Truth
today,
after a difficult lifetime
of searching,
where death
followed me everywhere,
torturing me,
and life was
an bad ocean
of bad beer,
and so this truth
is known
by all the greatest sages
who knew,
because they too
tread this lonely,
treacherous path,
and I followed
the Buddha
because I thought
that he was the One Who Knew,
and so today
I was sitting on the patio
and realized
this Greatest Of Truths
and it was
that I should be
a nice guy.
