Traces (7)

Blockhead Existentialism


The tree was always there when
You needed it

Until you became a stump.


~~~~~


Truce


The poem
Wants nothing

From you
But to meet it

On its own
Terms—

Unconditional
Surrender.


~~~~~


Waiting for a Bite


Whenever I throw out a line,
I always hope

Something will be left when
The poem decides

To reel me in.


~~~~~


Concentration Means Resolution


Let the first thing
That enters your mind

Stay there.


~~~~~


True North


So easy to be misled
By aimless wandering,

But then again, no one
Ever found himself by

Using a compass.



NB: A note on Traces: Time to leave, hopefully not without having left a trace.
