Movements
It is difficult to climb
on the scale of life,
much easier is
descending the stairs
of the cliff ...
So lightly is to walk
with the head
in the clouds than
with feet running aground...
So difficult is to follow
ahead ... simple is
reverse gear
Will cross with struggle
the cruel sea of the world,
stroke without drowning
in shallow water ...?
So normal to be in the middle
out of nowhere than stay in
in the middle of everything ...
The truth is that however much
slow and insecure
let us be,
however indolent ...
in a way or another
we are always going around
in body and in mind ...
Even standing still when
rivers flow through us,
channels irrigate us,
synapses bind us
while atoms spin ...
