The Right Of The Grass
Everyman has a right to live.
I uprooted the grass growing
Along with the paddy I grew.
Hasn't the grass right to live?

The meek paddy
I am paddy and he is a farmer.
He sows me to get ten folds of me
And I followed so as to get a life.
Thus exploitations exist everywhere.

The White Heron
flying low
it circles a spot
thrice
it flaps its wide wings
retreats its head
stops a while
then lands in perfect
silence
on the rice paddy.

I tell you, St. Paddy, God-wot
An Irishman born he was not.
To be sure fair of face
He hailed from a place
Where he started off life as a Scot!

It's always the generals with the bloodiest records who are the first to shout what a hell it is. And it's always the war widows who lead the Memorial Day parades.

Artists don't talk about art. Artists talk about work. If I have anything to say to young writers, it's stop thinking of writing as art. Think of it as work.
