Beside the reckless music of a line of
waterfalls,
Tuning my toes in the songs they
throw away,
l sit so still Il spider takes my knees
for his walls,
And I do not know what year it is. I
know only the day
And the little singing moment when a
spotted moth and |
Are untroublcd with each other as the
shade is with the sun,
She at last convinced that | am glad a
worm can fly
And l understanding why hcr tail
moves up and down.
Two pigeons are intoning, like carriers
in Hangchow
Two cat-birds are lighting, like gem
erals toward Picking;
And if l were not sitting here, there
might be much to do
But the best the world has taught me
is to he at ease and sing,
To disregard the generals, the con-
jurer that rules.
The thousand bits of nonsense that
make a matter wise,
And to share the lighter reason of a
dynasty of fools
Whose premierS are waterfalls, whose
courticrs butterflies.
