were the fates to love
would maiden hold
loft your bonzéd hair
or mother gaze at

       the future which have turned bleak

Fledglings hatched - then away they flew,

State of the Mind

...Some are seated in the East
But their minds are in the south,
When you talk, they hardly hear
Because their minds have travelled wide
Beyond the surface of their present state of mind;

He taught me many important things like,  "Listen, do not chatter".
