THE PEAR TREE GROWS
For years he was inspired
as
the cherry tree
gave away all in charity
and as he grew
he abandoned the parody
of trying to be a cherry tree
.. He let go of seeking
parity
with the broader cherry tree
taller and taller grew the pear tree
.. with birds attracted to his pears
.. he was all parrot-y
A SLOW HEART
Several ways
they reduce
their heart
beat rate..
some run
some lose weight
some become
fruitarian
some meditate
LOVE ENCASED
We are all
love encased in ice
.. power frozen
in the saturnine
..
compassion imprisoned
in self hate
Saints and masters
come with their blowtorches
to us.. painlessly
melting the towers
of iceberg ambition
.. freeing
our lovepower
