YUM-YUM: ZEN AT DAWN

"Watching the moon
at dawn,
solitary, mid-sky,
I knew myself completely:
no part left out."

-Izumi Shikibu (974-1034)








from The Enlightened Heart
An Anthology of Sacred Poetry
Edited by Stephen Mitchell

Sometimes when YumYum
wonders why he is still such
a small pig, he becomes
very Zen in his struggle to
accept that small outside
still contains Infinity inside.
This he knows. The moon
only reminds him.
