Sitting in the Zendo at Tassajara
Sitting in the Zendo
By Barbara Huntington
Thinking about a poem
Acknowledge that
Let it go
But it may never come again
Acknowledge that
Let it go
Can I tuck it away in a corner?
Empty mind except one corner?
Acknowledge that
Let it go
It’s about…Damn I lost it.
Acknowledge that
Let it go.
At Tassajara 5/28/13
This is part of a compilation of poems called Pens Up! from the Words under the Words workshop with Naomi Shihab Nye at Tassajara in the summer of 2013.
