2025-11-25 – Poetry

Sunday, November 30th, 2025

I see the scenes
and describe them in words
and hope that I should be
treasured as a poet.

Just an ego waving
my hands…
look at me
see what I have seen
treasure me.

Is it just another way
of being foolish?

2025-12-20 – A fool’s errand

Thursday, December 25th, 2025

Before words, simple ‘is-ness’ was all.
Then we came with our words and,
seeing only from within them,
we tried to ‘explain’ things.

It is such a fool’s errand.

Know that the ‘is-ness’
is the truth
and that the words are the illusion,
and things get much simpler.
