Plenitude

There is no bridge

from lack to bounty,

no accretion that won’t sink

into the endless, desperate pool of want,

and that is why we won’t go there

We’ll start out where we are,

with here, with presence,

we’ll let the tendrils of awareness

reach in deep

to find the fact

that we have always been supplied

with plenitude, in everything we need.
