Qoheleth Haiku 1:5

⁵The sun rises and the sun goes down, 
and hurries to the place where it rises.

The course of the sun

Qoheleth’s cosmology

A mythology

We cannot expect

That the ancient Qoheleth

Would know what we know

Qoheleth of old

Had a poetic world view

That would improve ours

Sameness in the sun

And it course through the heavens

Sneaks behind the earth

Sameness is order

Though causing boredom for some

Gives others comfort
