CONTRITION

It's the beginning of my training, lord,

have consideration.  No more dressing

up for each occasion; no more coyness.

I discard the red and blue of motley wear;

the nun's yellow cloth is befitting.

I shall use few words. I shall supress

my longing.  At the crook of the forest,

almost in tears, he tried to deter me.

Cancel our youthful convenant

to free me from anxiety

uncomfortable like a taut strand of hair.

I can love no more, it's unbecoming.

Seek a new lover and marry her.

Let these notches on a fig and an acacia

bear witness to our separation.

I shall meditate on life's loathsomeness

to win the stages of sanctification.

Queen Ma Mya Glay
