Shallows

you can only dig as deep
as your equipment allows you to
and equipment comes from
rollin’ thru’ the past ages in –
meditation
contemplation
sittin’ stone deepening within

head hollow means heart
small to the point of tiny
try to prize it open
without the means will only bring
those pinprick victories
steeped in illusion
that send you to the lands
of the elephant
in future times to come

standin’ in the shallows
sometimes has to be
always hidden in the shallows
is a depth of glory
not immediately apparent
and contempt for the shallows
will never send you to the deep
understand that man
u-n-d-e-r-s-t-a-n-d
