Three bowls


Three bowls,
an empty trinity
waiting

earth, fire, water
man, woman, child
too hot, too cold, just right

Nature abhors a vacuum
said Aristotle
but he was proved wrong

Nature abhors a vacuum,
says Henry David Thoreau
and if I can only walk with sufficient carelessness I am sure to be filled.
