Disruptive: Faucet Fumble

So, this is what happened,
The usual chaos,
Getting out and shopping
Before the rain pours;

Making a list
And checking it,
Heading out the door
And saying, “see you later,” to the bears,

Easier walking now
With the snow gone,
No trouble along the way,
All going smoothly;

Quiet time afterwards,
Until found the faucet
Was leaking
And that nobody local has the part,

Looks like
Have to order it
From somewhere
Or buy a whole new sink!

Vastly annoying, I think,
As wide as the void
To which I turn
And look deeply into

But how does one stare
Into difficulty and despair
And see Nibbana
Even in there?

Or maybe that’s yet
Too challenging a puzzle
Or alternatively
Too straight forward.
