"Phantom Cabinet (Buddhist Pain)"
I reached for a dish near the sink.
The cabinet door reached for my head.
I fell forward.
The cabinet door shouted.
I heard a very loud sound come out of my mouth.
The cabinet door apologized.
I felt a pain shoot throughout my body.
The cabinet door was concerned.
I became disoriented,
knowing there had to be some explanation for this.
The cabinet door was intrigued.
I was bewildered, for I felt no physical pain.
The cabinet door simply smiled.
