LOVE'S FOOL
Love.
What is love?
What is love.
Love is a fading memory
Love is piercingly present
Love is full of charm
Love is hideously in the way
Explosion of love makes you feel ecstatic
Explosion of love makes you feel suicidal
Love brings goodliness and godliness
Love brings celestial vision
Love creates the unity of heaven and earth
Love tears apart heaven and earth.
Is love sympathy.
Is love gentleness.
Is love possessiveness.
Is love sexuality.
Is love friendship.
Who knows?
Maybe the rock knows
Sitting diligently on earth
Not flinching from cold snowstorms or baking heat.
O rock,
How much I love you:
You are the only loveable one.
Would you let me grow a little flower of love on you?
If you don't mind,
Maybe I could grow a pine tree on you.
If you are so generous,
Maybe I could build a house on you.
If you are fantastically generous,
Maybe I could eat you up,
Or move you to my landscape garden.
It is nice to be friends with a rock.
8 July 1975
