I Ching
by Martin Burke

The Corners of the Mouth (Providing Nourishment)

the mountain and arousing thunder

attend to the necessities

the superior man is cautious

                             *

misfortune follows decisions

you turn from the path-
misfortune follows

do not act in this manner for ten years

turning to the mountain top
brings good fortune

do not cross the great water

be aware, be aware
this is the moment to cross the great water
