THIRSTING FOR CHANGE
Two worlds collide in their unconscious thirst for change
Me?
I remain in the middle—my soul stuck between them, stubbornly immutable, resolutely unmoved
Nonchalant about their odd thirst, my fountain overflows with a stoic acceptance of whatever happens
I effortlessly give way to The Tao, my shepherd, not wanting, not yearning—fighting for nothing, thankful for everything
Simply:
Chopping wood, carrying water; sipping some.
