Adage 3 Poem by RIC BASTASA

Adage 3



'A good meal ought to begin with hunger.'
French Proverb

one who is full
shall never be full
because he is

to be full
one must be empty again
to be a wall
one must start being a window
blink
and then open your eyes
and then close
each eye
slowly
this is the ritual of days and nights
shuttered existence
close
open
close
open
close
open
fragile tiny hands of a new born baby
beside
the sleeping mother.
