나의 새해 소망은
진짜 ‘시인’이 되는 것이다
해마다 별러도 쓰기 어려운
모자 하나 선물 받는 일이다

‘시인’이란 대저,
한평생 제 영혼을 헹구는 사람
그 노래 멀리서 누군가 읽고
너무 반가워 가슴 벅찬 올실로
손수 짜서 씌워 주는 모자 같은 것

돈 주고도 못 사고 공짜도 없는
그 무슨 백을 써도 구할 수 없는
얼핏 보면 값싼 듯 화사한 모자
쓰고 나면 왠지 궁상맞고 멋쩍은
그러면서 따뜻한 모자 같은 것

어디서나 팔지 않는 귀한 수제품
아무나 주지 않는 꽃다발 같은
‘시인’이란 작위를 받아 보고 싶다
어쩌면 사후에도 쓸똥말똥한
시인의 모자 하나 써 보고 싶다
나의 새해 소망은.

-＜시인의 모자＞

대학 때 未堂 선생이 주신
아호에 집 堂자 붙여
近園이 써 준 ‘耳笑堂’
걸고 나니, 가가대소
누옥 한 칸이 확 넓어진다
귀가 웃는 집인가?
귀로 웃는 집인가?
잠시 엿듣다 가는 바람
코로 웃어도 상관없는 집이다
머리 어깨 힘 빼고
허파에 든 바람도 빼고
몸 가두면 들린다
시계가 내 생을 좀먹는 소리
마음벽 쩍쩍 금가는 소리
벌어진 틈 다시 메우고
어혈 든 내 혼을 방생하는 집이다
혹시 그리운 사람 올까
가끔 귀 열어 놓는다, 허나
허리 삔 바람소리 또 스산하니
문 닫고 귀로 웃는 집이다.

-＜이소당 시편 1＞
