Everything is uncertain
setting one word on a blank page, a choice
and where will it lead?
Further and further from the old answers the path unfurls
questions gather like burrs on the hem of your garment.
And why not remove it altogether?
No one is here to see your nakedness.
Who are you without all your annoyances, your burning questions
your drives and deepest thirsts?
Look at them now, like a flock of birds
they wheel and spiral away from you.
Once you were this still, this quiet.
