Sensei has gone on retreat.
No one sits on the cushion, teaching.
At dusk, a pair of geese squawk,
alighting in Spring's low alfalfa -
Refuge!

About Me
- Chico Martin
- I have lived in Vermont, near the Canadian border, and in southern New Mexico, near the Mexican border, for most of my adult life. For 13 years I owned and operated the Alley Beat Bookstore, in Middlebury, Vermont, which specialized in contemporary poetry and small press publications. I was active in the Burlington, Vermont Poets Mimeo Cooperative for many years, and my poetry has appeared in a k a, OASII, Puerto del Sol, Sin Fronteras, :that:, and Vox Audio. More recently, I have taken part in the Vermont Renaissance, a friendship of poets in Charlotte, VT. I am a long standing member of the Transfiguration Community, an Ecumenical study and Christian worship fellowship based in NYC. I also sit Zazen online with Dragon's Eye Zendo. I was baptized in Corpus Christi Catholic Church, in Morningside Heights, the same church where Thomas Merton was baptized.
