Clear
✺
I stopped by the bar at 3 am
to seek solace in a bottle
or possibly a friend
And I woke up with a headache
like my head against a board
twice as cloudy as I'd been
the night before
and I went in seeking clarity
―Indigo Girls
~
I am a frog
swimming happily
in the clear water
of a pond,
and I am the grass-snake
that silently feeds itself
on the frog.
―Thich Nhat Hanh
~
Clear cascade―
into the ripples
fall green pine needles
—Matsuo Basho
