the fickle mind


as New as New is

i knew it wouldn't last

just as New always knew

without Familiarity

there would be no

one who knew

New and Familiarity

shared their happiness



o! fickle mind running to and fro'

searching for what it does

thinking this

asking that

wondering itself

questioning others

whose minds run

incessantly

for the sake of

re-New-ing a Now

that has No Mind

to know no New

as New cannot

be Now any longer

than Now always is:



never new

never familiar

never old

never stranger

Now forever

forever Now

no mind to ask

the question

How?



no need to know

what mind demands

stricken of time

without any hands

time just was

what time allowed

but Now has no limits

to limit it's Now

unlike Familiar

and unlike New

Now is Now

that's all

Now do
