I Have Been Thinking

I have been thinking…
I have been thinking of the difference between water
I have been thinkingI have been thinkingand the waves on it. Rising,
water’s still water, falling back,
it is water, will you give me a hint
how to tell them apart?

Because someone has made up the word
‘wave,’ do I have to distinguish it
from water?

There is a Secret One inside us;
the planets in all the galaxies
pass through his hands like beads.

That is a string of beads one should look at with luminous eyes.
