an effect on their life– it is their
life.

Drink your tea slowly and
Thich Nhat Hanh
reverently, as if it is the axis on
which the world earth revolves
slowly, evenly, without rushing
toward the future. -
Looking outside again
Looking outside again
I find myself looking outside again,
outwards into the world
for words to describe what I feel,
What I want to express.
After a flurry of searching, of grasping
At the voices of others,
The articulation, the timbre, the pace,
I stop –
Wait.Why others? Why not me?
Surely I can pluck the words
Ripe from the branching neurons
of my blooming mind-orchard?
Am I not best suited to tease
The sparks breaching my subconscious
Higher into the light,
to sculpt and mould them into
The form of my fancy?No,
I don’t need to go outside to play. -
