Limits

Limits

Of all the streets that blur in to the sunset,

There must be one (which, I am not sure)

That I by now have walked for the last time

Without guessing it, the pawn of that Someone

Who fixes in advance omnipotent laws,

Sets up a secret and unwavering scale

for all the shadows, dreams, and forms

Woven into the texture of this life.

Shinto

Shinto

When sorrow lays us low

for a second we are saved

by humble windfalls

of the mindfulness or memory:

the taste of a fruit, the taste of water,

that face given back to us by a dream,

the first jasmine of November,

the endless yearning of the compass,

We Are The Time We Are The Famous

We Are The Time We Are The Famous

We are the time. We are the famous

metaphor from Heraclitus the Obscure.

We are the water, not the hard diamond,

the one that is lost, not the one that stands still.

We are the river and we are that greek

that looks himself into the river. His reflection

changes into the waters of the changing mirror,

into the crystal that changes like the fire.

El Instante

El Instante

Dónde estarán los siglos, dónde el sueño

de espadas que los tártaros soñaron,

dónde los fuertes muros que allanaron,

dónde el Árbol de Adán y el otro Leño?

El presente está solo. La memoria

erige el tiempo. Sucesión y engaño

es la rutina del reloj. El año

no es menos vano que la vana historia.

Remorse For Any Death

Remorse For Any Death

Free of memory and of hope,

limitless, abstract, almost future,

the dead man is not a dead man: he is death.

Like the God of the mystics,

of Whom anything that could be said must be denied,

the dead one, alien everywhere,

is but the ruin and absence of the world.

We rob him of everything,
