Dali

Vipassana

 


In the butcher shop
Bob sees Salvador
Dali, who is carving
a life size figure of
a woman from a side 
of beef. When finished
Dali whispers in 
her ear the question, 
“How do I obtain 
a clear mind?” Bob and
Dali wait for an 
answer. She is silent.
Bob eventually 
gives up, but whenever 
he visits the butcher 
shop he sees Dali, 
sitting, his limpid eyes 
wide open, waiting 
for the answer 
from the woman
of his vivid dreams.
