040: Amid this sun and rain/what can I say...

DateThursday, November 11, 2010 at 9:06AM

Amid this sun and rain

what can I say

 

The crashing calls

in this stillness

It sings to me on the wind

what can I say to it?

 

When I'm lost for words

it's because there are no words

When I have no words

it's because I think the

poem is separate from me

 

The poem is mystery expressed

completely, is awakening written

in the book of the world, it is

me walking my sins home

 

Listening to the ocean amid sun and rain

and not knowing what to say
