THREE OLD MONK POEMS (288)
JOHN CLARE
John Clare,
where
are you
when
I need you,
the old monk said.
~
STUDENTS
Students on the mountain
should be on the mountain
with their masters.
Their masters should
already be gone,
the old monk said.
~
YOU'RE AN OLD
You're an old man,
the old monk told himself.
It's okay to be wonky.
