My Amhgdala
Beyond the amygdala of my brain, on
a place
Around the time of now
following burst to slake the thirst
When tepid air waft sweet the succulence of honeysuckle
Those morning glories peeking through labyrinthine trellises
Poor man bereft of everything but nature
whose desire could not fulfill every creature
A Wu-wei Zen master taking in an imbibing stillness,
Like that poor amygdala, poor amygdala of mine …
