yellowed the leaves too

if foxes could write
surely then would be their choice
feathers to quill haunts

teeth clasped feather
there is a hunger for more
daylight progresses

daylight
the one that got away
or the one eaten

always in the wild
with the catch of predators
unanswered questions

grasping solitude -
the many thoughts that can be
written on the wind

Linking today to
Carpe Diem #405, Zenjibuji (Temple 32)

It maybe well here to note the use of words in Zen, the way in which silence and speech are one thing. In all true Zen language and conversation, that is to say, whenever two minds are really in communion, any given word connotes its logical opposite as well. So if we say "selflessness", it means, in conjunction, "selffulness". "Loneliness" is also a state of interpenetration with all other things. Thus Basho (1644-1694) says, aspiring to be in this state:

ah, Kankodori,
deepen thou
my loneliness
