poetry: worthy iii

-->

Outbreaks occur but rarely
and last only a short time

serious investigation
scientific analysis
are difficult to pursue

observers note that
activities center around
a particular person
often an adolescent female

a recurrence of mysterious rapping
is spirit communication
one rap for no
two raps for doubtful
three raps for yes
four raps for bliss

ask the spirit
what it thinks of you
hope for four raps.
