Silence in the Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste

There is a silence inside my mind.

I like it there. It's not like a Hindu temple, necessarily,

it's not like a monk's cave.

It's not like the inside of a mirror-sphere

or the envelope of a tear.

It's more like the canyon echo,

the waterfall rush where you can stand

underneath, behind the tumbling waters

and the rushing infinity

and not get wet.
