Empirically: Embracing Variety

Jumping right,
Jumping left,
What a strange
Way to be;

Can’t seem to settle,
Aimlessly falling from flower to flower,
Sampling pollen and falling again,
Like a drunken bee;

To bee or not to bee;
The bee
Has to be
In order to find out!

All over the meadow,
That’s me
But I don’t have to keep going
Because the going takes care of itself!

Tough going,
Easy going,
Fast going,
Slow going,

It’s all the same to me
And all different,
Variety and monotony,
Boredom and excitement,

Fascination
And loss of interest,
Beginner’s mind
And, oh, so mundane!

Finally indescribable
Because I’ve forgotten how;
Trying to remember,
Then flying off someplace else.
