Riprap

Sun Nov 15, 2009, 7:47 PM
Lay down these words
Before your mind like rocks.
placed solid, by hands
In choice of place, set
Before the body of the mind
in space and time:
Solidity of bark, leaf, or wall
riprap of things:
Cobble of milky way.
straying planets,
These poems, people,
lost ponies with
Dragging saddles –
and rocky sure-foot trails.
The worlds like an endless
four-dimensional
Game of Go.
ants and pebbles
In the thin loam, each rock a word
a creek-washed stone
Granite: ingrained
with torment of fire and weight
Crystal and sediment linked hot
all change, in thoughts,
As well as things.

Gary Snyder.

...


Sometimes, there's a pause in life to look around and check who's there and what they have to give you. Found this poem on a friends blog, and it made perfect sense to me that this is the best advise: a poem by Gary Snyder.

  • Mood: Content
  • Listening to: All
  • Reading: Jack Kerouac
  • Watching: movies
  • Playing: Oh yes
  • Eating: a lot
  • Drinking: a lot.....
