Hockey


hockey is as hockey does.

I accomplish less
enjoy more.
of nothing

simple - 單
quiet - 安
think - 算

these bring peace
unity
an end to suffering

then why the red face
why the brown eyes
why grey hair

what is
seldom seen,
never heard.
a koan.
branching in the darkness
searching for the light
grazing
sodden
