Sitting up in bed - a futon -
found - almost new - in a skip
by the vicarage in Kentish Town
Snug under a feather & down duvet
collected from the Argos in Gloucester
by Pip in her big red Saab
The comforting sound of rain on the
roof - redolent of some childhood time
the details of which I have forgotten
Although I now recall - or rather
feel - a holiday in Somerset -
perhaps my fondest memory
Beside the bed a stack of poetry - Zukofsky

Leaning on a handsome new book -
A Quiet Life - by my friend

Now the rain has stopped -
just the sound of my breathing
and these words in my head
Sitting & writing - entangled &
content - in & with - a life & world
of generosity & connectedness.

Where the rain

Each moment
A moment of grace
How can the heart
Feel so warm
When the skin’s
So cold?

A music so dense
as to be unfathomable.
A mist ascends, clears the air
and obliterates all landmarks.
Eyes at the back of the head relax
and connect like hypothalmic threads.
Stretching clears the head
and can be painful.
Pain is simply weakness
leaving the body.
Starting each day anew we acquire
clarity rather than momentum.
Variety’s the very spice of life
and a change is as good as a rest.
Thinking is peering at the world
through the bars of a prison.
Heart and mind together
like an open rose.
Life is sometimes painful and sometimes beautiful
but usually it’s both.
Subtracting self reveals what’s really there;
this is softness.
Smile and the world smiles with you
cry and you cry alone.
If what’s given truly connects
then magic happens.
No need to worry about winning or losing
just engage and let nature take her course.
Be suspicious,
nature may have got it wrong too.
If I have any force
it is in mobility.
All is movement and everywhere is the same movement
simply transformed.
Grab the tail of the dragon
and don’t let go.
The heat of passion
burns through fear.
Fear defines the present
passion defies the present.
No answers
only methods.
The internal is what is here
the external is what is there.
Here there and everywhere
all is the same.
Yielding – the art of engaging.
Yes it’s always time.
The only truth is heart to heart
and we fight for what we love not are.
Love is it’s own rescue, for we
are but it’s trembling Emblems.
What is this thing called love
but the one Spinozan substance.
A rolling stone gathers no moss
but a rolling snowball gets bigger & bigger.
All goes onward & outward
nothing collapses.
Open to let life surge in out & through
no time for pleasure pain truth or beauty.
It is undone business I speak of this morning
with the world stretching out from my feet.
