ALL THE WAY TO NOWHERE

I used to move
with everything
in my single suitcase

now a moving van
parks
in front of
my new house

but I did not own
the suitcase
and I do not own
the house
anymore than a ripple
owns the pond
or the ocean

and as I carry
a mirror
to the living room
I see a face
empty
as a suitcase,
a forehead
rippled
like an ocean

I love it.

Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things,
man will not himself find peace."

This is deep, indeed!
More!
