Knowledge

All the mindful ones with their long nets
meet with a great laugh from the sea.
Friends, what are you seeking on the beach?
knowledge can never be caught,
can never be owned.

But if you fall like a drop
straight into the sea to be dissolved,
ready  for  any  transformation - 
then you shall wake with mother-of-pearl skin
and green eyes
on fields where the sea's horses graze
and be knowledge.
