You practice non-attachment Yet you wouldn't want to do Without water. You let water own you like a lotus leaf You allow it to hold you in its never ending cul-de-sac Flowing between the total bliss of nirvana And the joy of samsara. You practice non-attachment to desire Yet you're wanting Desiring Craving Water. Ponds. Lakes. Streams. Seas Your thirst is inextinguishable Wild awake rain And as you drink that unquenchable flood Your lips are watering springs, Sipping fountains of primordial tears.
