the movement














In the movement
There is constant flurry
To pause is unthinkable
They say - be still and be waste

In the movement
Rush to get ahead of it all
Work for the future
Declare the present to be dead

Eyes will not focus
Thoughts will not rest
Allow nothing to pass
Without continual stirring

But pause and dare to defy
Destroy the spell of the movement
For if true life is to emerge
The movement cannot last

Eyes will now focus
Thoughts will now rest
Allow nothing to pass
Without enduring calm

Yes, enduring calm
For the movement cannot last
