This thread inspired me to go get a new one, this and the "what are your last words thread...
It's a Zen death poem, as a monk approached his death he was expected to write a haiku... there are soe incredibly beautiful ones one of my favorites was
Tsumimono ya
nakute jodo e
tsuki no fune
Cargoless,
bound heavenward,
ship of the moon
But I chose...
I long for people...
then again I loathe them:
end of autumn.
taken in context it pretty much captures my feelings...at this point.......
