THREE OLD MONK POEMS (95) 


ONE MORE

One more, or two,
or six, what
does it matter,
the old monk asked.
Who's keeping score?

~

AND THAT WAS

And that was
the revelation --

the old monk
only had his

own worn sack
to carry up

the mountain.

~

YOU HAVE TO

You have to
carry down

what you
carry up,

the old monk
said. You

can't leave it
on the mountain.
