ENVY
Ocean Waves
Endlessly cascading
Against rocks
Splitting open
Granite wedges
In an eternal instant.
An igneous monolith
Sighs and
Births
Effortlessly
Into two.
How I envy its surrender!
My brain rattles
And chatters
With thoughts
That clatter over
Well-worn train tracks
Of mind.
From the platform of
Self I watch
The thought-lights
Strobe past
indefinitely
Into the cavernous night
Where a tunnel
Swallows the rail
In a single gulp.
How I envy its appetite!
A single gull
Perches in wait
On the shore.
Ocean Kissing
Its webbed feet.
Cormorant eyes
Dart playfully
Along the surf
Patiently awaiting
the side crawl
Of dinner moving.
How I envy its patience!
There is no hurry
Now.
Only waves,
A crab, and the
Rocks
surrendering
With every kiss
of the Sea.
And I notice that
my train track mind
has been
lulled
into an eternal moment
where an endless
Perfect Sea
has birthed me into
a cavernous
moonless night
where there is no envy at all.".
