THE
wEYMOUTH
HERMIT
YEAR
AUGUST 2014
* * * * *
1) UNE NUIT BLANCHE
up all night again
i've taken
to drawing
on walls.
* * * * *
2)
pruning brambles
picking blackberries
in the sun
my father
nods approvingly
i like to think.

3) Philip Whalen
How could a "Beat Poet"
enter the monastery
shave his head
and be celibate?
i wondered
40 years ago.
Well, here i am
"alone" for just as long
and living
in a "hermitage"
these past four years.

4) No room for manoeuver
Merton said
a life is either
all spiritual
or
not spiritual at all.
My father said
one cannot be too honest
either
one is honest
or
one is not honest.
