So Much News


Why do you listen
to so much news?
It isn’t new.
Wisdom comes
from a pulsing well
of silence.
Remember where
your root goes in Winter
to get sap.
A great Simplicity
warms the earth
from inside.
What’s really new

flowers here.
Listen in the dark
to the throb of your body
and the breaking
of your heart.
This is the sound
of the seed.
