HARBOUR WAVE




The tsunami doesn’t stop to ask people
About their beliefs.
Neither does the mountain stream quiz the rocks
On their opinions,
On its way to the sea.

To be as hollow as we can
Signifies least resistance to the waves of life.
Be slippery, be pliant
That way the path is easy.

Every last morsel can only be devoured,
Or it has a habit of devouring you.

STAPLE DIET


Fatigue for breakfast
Judgement for lunch
Banter for afternoon tea
Ill humour for dinner

Late at night
He breaks out of his shell
All night long
All night long
He sings the praises of life eternal.
