THREE OLD MONK POEMS (181) 


LIE ON YOUR MAT

Lie on your mat
as if you were dead

and listen to the stars.
Death will come

soon enough,
the old monk said.

~

WHEN IT'S DONE

When it's done
it's done, and you
lay down your pencil,
the old monk said
about life and stuff.

~

YOU'RE NOT DONE

You're not done
til you lay down

your pencil,
the old monk

told the poet.
