Learn to be Quiet

by Franz Kafka

You need not do anything.

Remain sitting at your table and listen.
You need not even listen, just wait.
You need not even wait,
just learn to be quiet, still and solitary.
And the world will freely offer itself to you unmasked.
It has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.

I found this poem online, thought it was pretty awesome... what do you think?

PS. I've removed the last line of the poem- I think it sort of spoils the whole thing. If you want to see it, just select the whole post.
