THREE OLD MONK POEMS (87)
YOU HAVE ALREADY
You have already thought
what you are thinking
when you think it,
the old monk says.
~
IF LANGUAGE
If language
could be pure
enough to
say what we
see, we could
tell the truth.
Alas,
the old monk said.
~
A POEM IS NOT
A poem is not
some chaos, but
an organization
you haven't yet
come to understand,
the old monk told
the student
who complained.
