"In quiet quarters" (poem)


Back beside Rock Creek Park   in quiet quarters
studying Gandhi's book   to pass the hours
six wweks or so   to dwell in pinetree shadows
pondering life's design   restoring my powers
sitar & surbahar   then we'll take to China?
paintings & films   anon in Delhi & Bengal?
unsure what route to follow   come mañana
beyond the hill-of-50-years   still single
