walking

Sun, May 11, 2025

I had to stop—to move consciously.
I have to stop consciously, to move.

I am with him.
She is with me.

Come on.
Let’s walk.
Come on.
Okay—let’s walk.
Still no movement.

This time—
We are walking. Come on.
Still no movement.

Then—
a laugh.

There is a whole planning of movement,
yet still—no movement.
It is amusing.
The body laughs at the mind.

How nice is walking,
just for the sake of walking—
just like a baby.

You go.
I am watching you.
You are doing great.

Is this my arm?
How lovely.
It is holding a shape.
It moves by itself.
My arm is walking with me.

I know you are bothered.
It is a stone underfoot.
But I am okay with it.
Let it be.

You see—
It has gone by itself.
You didn’t have to do anything.
