Hunters

Trap monkeys

Putting food inside

A buried

Narrow-necked

Gourd.

 

Grabbing the food

Unwilling to let it go

The monkey's fist

Clenched by desire

Is holding

The monkey

Trapped.

 

My friend,

Why do you hold on

To past grudges

And memories

Of whatever wrongs

You may have

Suffered?

 

Why wait for the hunter's net

And his hard blow to the elbow

To release the hold?

 

Be magnanimous

As befits your

True

Nature.

 

Forgive – and by forgiving

Open your generous hand

And

Walk away

Free.

Dear Friends: Please keep in mind that taking someone's creative and

intellectual works (poetry, art, articles, essays, posts, etc.) without permission

of the authors is a violation of copyright laws. This especially applies to

this list, , as it is a private list which can be viewed by

members only.

 

Most individuals do allow their artistic and creative work to be posted

elsewhere if you request it and use their work in a not-for-profit format for

benefit of others. So that is not usually a problem.

 

However, if you are taking content from this list with a profit motive (such

as promotion of your site in order to sell products, ads, etc.), it is

critical that you seek the explicit and written permission from the authors whose

works you are using.

 

Acting in any other way is dishonest. Thank you.
