Bodhidharma

That man Bodhidharma
Planted tea bushes in my heart
And turned my head to flame.

So who now moans, as if nothing will do?
And how have I failed, to feel so unwhole?
Hills of bright trees are now silent sticks,
Geese pass over—thick fog.

Let's break the damn cup, and start over again.
