EMPTY AS THE LETTER O Poor letter O— so much like zero without anything to give or share— all the numbers have marched onward without you to bigger and better things. Alone letter O— only the lonely the hole in the sock or the roof ever in need to be mended until one day you wake up from an empty dream telling you that you're OK, wise as the owl, vast as the ocean, precious as pearl, round as the eye, the sun and moon. Rich letter O— so much like zero Mother of numbers, all born from you Older than time, sacred as Om Gold ring without beginning or end. Empty letter O— like the Mind uncluttered, unnamed, unformed, like pure empty space containing this entire infinite universe. — Peter Y. Chou Los Altos Hills, 7/8/2006 Poetry Workshop with Ingrid Wendt "Poetry Models as Prompts" 30th Annual Foothill Writers' Conference |
