Sample of poems from Watching Pilgrims Watching Me
year after year
outside the big hotel
the same beggars
last bend
before the plateau
an overturned bus
return to Shangri-la
her peaceful mantra
becomes mine
red and white snow
on the monk's hands
pig's blood
explosive gusts
only the windhorses
endure them gracefully
last light
a monk bunches maize
in the stone courtyard
Watching Pilgrims Watching Me
