Zen poetry — Loneliness

by The Crazy Colombian on October 4, 2007

in Life, Poem

LONELINESS
How many friends
does a man need
to never feel alone,
to never fall asleep?
Lone­li­ness

shin­ing a light
into the bot­tom­less pit
that har­bors our fears,
our inse­cu­ri­ties,
our human imper­fec­tion,
and shows that
not all is lost,
in the des­per­ate path
to com­pan­ion­ship.
How many souls
does a woman need
to never feel alone,
never fall asleep?

(a poem by Gus­tavo Adolfo Bec­quer)
¿Qué Es Poesía?

¿Qué es poesía?, dices mien­tras clavas
En mi pupila tu pupila azul.
¡Qué es poesía! ¿Y tú me lo pre­gun­tas?
Poesía eres tú.
~~~~~~~~~o~o~o~o~o~o~~~~~~~
(Loose trans­la­tion)
What is poetry? whis­per your lips
while you stare into my soul.
What is poetry! And you ask me?
Poetry is all of you.
