This is a poem about the experience of life on different levels of conscience.


A River


Imagine, you are a stone in a river,
fine woven plants cover you
and the water is your air,
and the sky is your heaven.

Imagine, you are a silent witness when
the broken branch falls into the river
or fatal cramp embraces swimmer's legs
and the stream's brink cuts you every day.

Imagine, your dream is to return
into the light and heat of the genesis,
to turn yourself into the peace and poem
without pain and evil thought.

Imagine, you are a stone
in a river of light, and
a witness of the peace, and
your clothes are plain.
