Being.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

being in this world
and being in myself
being in Being and
into substance and
nothingness, being
with you, being in
you, being in the
doing and being in
the thinking, it is
as grammar puts it,
in the doing and not
in the description,

the riding of the
horse is the being,
the eating of the
pudding is the being,
not how to swim but
in the swimming,
not in thoughts but
in the thinking, it
is the "ing, " the "be",
that is being.
