I Ching, Hexagram 12

 

logs across rural roads

a Y-turn in a rented car

not meant for rural roads

 

anger flares on damp, narrow trails

securely above the clouds

on a mountain not meant for clouds

 

a rotary telephone rings exactly ten times

in an underground ego-id complex

not meant for communication

 

forgiving is a push-you-pull-me effect

with noticeable stress flare-ups

not meant for deep concentration

 

grinding labor helps one forget

self-imposed commitments

in a season not meant for completeness
