THREE OLD MONK POEMS (22) 


THERE ARE OTHER

There are other
ways out of here

that aren't up
the mountain,

the old monk said,
but they're not many.

~

DON'T SAY IT

Don't say it
and say it
again,

the old monk said.
You'll learn.

~

IT'S YOUR BURDEN

It's your burden,
the old monk said.

You have to load
your own mule.
