Banquet

mosquitoes feasting
freaks from beneath the soil
dancing on my skin

Grief

Holding on to things
accumulating sorrow
to ward off the pain

Contemplation

Croaking silently
Watching the sky on water
and the steady rain

Tranquility

Flying through cotton
Its tears striking the windshield
A rainbow garland

Truth

Anything which works
Identifying the Tao
Full heart, empty mind

Sudden as sunlight
Rejoicing in ecstasy
As pure as the night

Intelligence

Realizing truth
A mind rich with innocence
Head and heart in sync
