Reminds me in an oblique way of some of Hanshan's poetry:
I usually live in seclusion
but sometimes I go to Kuoching
to call on the Venerable Feng-kan (pickup)
or to visit master Shih-te (big stick)
but I go back to Cold Cliff alone
observing an unspoken agreement
I follow a stream that has no spring
the spring is dry but not the stream
- Hanshan, #44, The Collected Songs of Cold Mountain by Red Pine
