The following is an example of a . CAREER ADVICE

Mistake the pointing finger for the moon.
Success in criticism comes from learning
not to take the flaming fact to heart.
Describe the finger. Tell us how it rose

from flippers of the mutant fish, explain
how knuckles work, compare the nail to rhino
horn, investigate the skin. But under
no conditions look the way it points.

Otherwise you melt your eye in milk.
You lose your marbles and your better judgment
knows better than to go along with that.

Intelligent sugar stays away from tea.
Where every wave has its own bag of wind
the sea will never level with a moon.
