Nothing happens – I’m anxious
Something should happen – but
It always happens that nothing
Ever happens – as it should
But only as it happens!
The heart tosses within
If sleep comes – a nightmare does too!
A nightmare it feels awake!
I am like you, earth,
Silent,bearing.
Churning of nectar was hard
It’s sharing even harder!
Is it probably easier
To abstain?
But then from what?
Pleasure or pain,
Dream or wakefulness,
Nothing or everything?
Aren’t they all yet one and the same?
Nothing happens – all goes on
Same as before – trying
To not be the same any more.
I’m anxious for they ask –
Has something happened?’ to me
‘Nothing’ I reply, meaning everything,
‘Has happened to me’!
