Poem Without Titles


There is so much to cover 

Like thistles near the inlet

One moment, a rendezvous fire

The next the Tao’s darkness

Impossible to penetrate

The heart of hearts 

Being praised up 

And down the vineyard 

Like a child’s tight curls 

This panorama takes place 

By time and light 

And by degrees

A small and beautiful sea

Escapes into the quiet evening 

Like a coal growing cold

A warm pocket 

Beneath the hull of a boat

Over the marina

Of luckier and penetrating reflections.
