Needs and Marvels

There are marvels in this world
That hunger, legitimate
Hunger, can lightly obscure—

Which could be what ascetics
Were on about, after all—
To reach a point where hunger

Has to contend with marvels
In the simplest performance—
You’re not being sensible.

You should not be doing this,
Writing and watching the cliffs.
You should be feeding yourself,

Planning the next happening,
Sating, not ignoring need.
