THREE OLD MONK POEMS (263)
WHEN THE RIVER
When the river
is not a god
in your mythology,
you have to make
your god a tree,
the old monk said.
~
IT ALWAYS SEEMS
It always seems
what you come back from
you still go forward to,
the old monk said.
~
WHAT PULLS
What pulls the Great Attractor
pulls us
and we fly towards it --
lightning and the acrid
smell of loss,
the old monk said.
