I Ching
by Martin Burke

The Creative

heaven and heaven uniting

heaven works through the sublime
to bring success
it furthers, it perseveres

the movement is one of power
the superior man is strong and untiring

                            *

the dragon is hidden -do not act

dragons appear -see the superior man

the superior man is creative
but at night is beset with troubles
yet there is no blame

no blame, no blame
there are flights over the depths

dragons have taken to the sky-
see the superior man

all that is arrogant, dragons and men,
will have cause to repent

the dragons have no heads
this brings good fortune
