THREE from
THE OLD POET SAYS


“You keep talking,”
the poet said,

“but all you do
is repeat yourself.

If you have nothing
more to say,

shut up.”

*

“What does it
cost me, this

slowing down
to see the world?

What do I gain
by losing?”

*

“How to write?”
The poet said,

“You practice
every day

and you wait.”
