Susan Hawthorne #222 I change


I change I change I change
the more I think I change
I notice that I have not changed
not really

and yet
unexpected parts do change
the things you didn't notice
now make you notice them

like pain
you didn't expect that because
it used to be temporary
the things you thought might change

like ideas
have more or less stayed the same
or at least recognisable variations
now deeper broader more subtle
