Like a River


A river

Seems to show the same scenery

Every time, yet

Its flow

Is always new


Yesterday’s river is gone

The river of an hour ago

No longer exists


Thoughts are the same

Yesterday’s thoughts have vanished

And the thoughts of a moment ago

Are already gone


They are newly spun

And then they disappear

Ceaselessly


I am the same

Yesterday’s self has vanished

And the self of a moment ago

Is already gone


When it appears

And when it fades

I do not know, but

Now, only this present moment

Is here
