THREE OLD MONK POEMS (272) 


THERE IS NO TIME

There is no time
as you drum your
way to the sky.

Only the dead
speak for the dead,
the old monk says.

~

THEY CALL ME

They call me
the Man Who Flies

but I am instead
the One Who Prays,

the old monk said.

~

GOOD AND EVIL

Good and evil
are designations

like that of a river,
upstream and down,

the old monk said.
