weary were we
before we knew

...

uphill and downhill
finding, not finding
waiting, time-filling
looking, not-looking

trying, not-trying

speaking, silence
thinking, not-thinking

time, passing, not-passing
wasting!
back, forward, forward, back
still looking

empty, not-empty

...

self, no-self,
heavy, heavy

life, death!
nothing, nothing

too big, too small
nothing, nothing

...

ruined, ruined
nothing
changes

find, the answer!
nothing
changes

something
missing
