Twenty-eight Characters Sent to Tung-ts'un on the Subject of the Poems He Burned

I hear that you have burned ten thousand of your poems —
all of them, not a single one left!
Now I know that I — the Plank Bridge Recluse —
do much too much talking:
when this poem reaches you, if it bothers you
— please, just burn it right up.
