WINDMILL LESSONS

 

Love you sincerely, O wind

it's the same as loving friends of the poor and poor

because the wall-roof is like the most wanted dream

when fate forced him to be a captain without a cabin

 

I never cursed the lips that mention the propeller

even though life begins with a dizzying wind

not a machine that repeatedly fondles bearings

or the burning of fossils that now have a foreign face

 

We rely on life from a blow to blow

then work to pull the two wheels that intersect

like a fertile field with scattered seeds

but we regularly water it even though there is no rain

 

We believe that every job

start with gradual change

then learn from the snail that survives

from enemy invasion and threat of starvation

 

We believe that every effort

beats from the simplicity that is not in vain

then contemplate the fallen tree after being slaughtered

rot and then pass on the fungi that decompose

 

because that's how opportunity is born

not the fruit of waiting-luck

but from event to event

what was once a normal thing

 

struggling to free you from the dark embrace

without ever waking up a bunch of smoke

is a very, very sacred mission

without shouldering any strings attached another day

without polluting the baby's soft nose

young children, and nursing mothers

 

oh, no matter how fast-persistent we run

keep the heart back where we started

 

Surakarta, November 25-28, 2013
