The clock ticks,
Mind running wild;
Ground shaking
My head throbs
Yet I and my surrounds are still.

Wood dry as the water
Lights - still the water runs, the fire appears
But yet its all still

There’s a movement,
But yet all is still
This not possible, but never impossible

Still is the movement
When everything moves
All is still

© Xiao H., Naperville, IL

The author's comments:
I was sitting, staring at a blank page in a quiet room. I was listening with my mind while looking around. I realized that nothing was physically happening but my thoughts moved everything.
