Fragments of Impermanence
"To think just for thoughts,
And write them down on a page,
Then throw it out just because it was forgotten.
To dream of some innovation,
And tell others aloud about it too,
And discard it just like that piece of paper,
When it became too hard to achieve.
Blend in with normal without questioning,
What normal itself is.
Acting how you think others would want you to act,
Without realizing they are thinking the same of you,
And acting just as you want them to see.
Creating a cycle of what is known,
Deprived of knowing the unseen."
