THREE OLD MONK POEMS (257)
YOU HAVE TO
You have to
make them pause
if you want them to
pay attention,
the old monk said.
That's basic rhetoric.

SOMETIMES WANT
Sometimes want
is wanting,
the old monk said,
and sometimes it's
not having enough.
~
IF YOU TRY
If you try to put
everything on top,
something will fall,
the old monk said.
