THREE OLD MONK POEMS (97) 


SOMETIMES IT FEELS

Sometimes it feels
like I'm painting
the Sistene Chapel,

writing these poems
under the stars,
the old monk said.

IF YOU GIVE

If you give away
what you have,

how do you eat,
they asked

the old monk.
He said, that's

not the question.

EVERYONE WANTS

Everyone wants
what

everyone wants,
the old monk says.

The trick is
to find it.
