THREE OLD MONK POEMS (226) 


IT HAS TO

It has to
come undone
for you

to see what
holds it
together,

the old monk says.

~

WISDOM ISN'T

Wisdom isn't like
picking berries,

the old monk told
his students.

~

IT IS LIKE MERCY

It is like mercy
when the rain comes,

even on the mountain,
the old monk said.
