Meditative Valentine

If I watch my thoughts like life-rafts
slowly floating away down river
and I keep wanting to leap out
onto one of them even though
I know where it’s going
I realize I create my own
construction and can then
completely let it go
and because the gods also abhor
a vacuum they rush into that empty
space even my relinquishment vacates
not to stop thinking
what does that make better
but to learn to think past thinking
and then further past further
building and building
and not to go under
