Stop thinking, and end your problems.<br />What difference between yes and no?<br />What difference between success and failure?<br />Must you value what others value,<br />avoid what others avoid?<br />How ridiculous!<br /><br />Other people are excited,<br />as though they were at a parade.<br />I alone don't care,<br />I alone am expressionless,<br />like an infant before it can smile.<br /><br />Other people have what they need;<br />I alone possess nothing.<br />I alone drift about,<br />like someone without a home.<br />I am like an idiot, my mind is so empty.<br /><br />Other people are bright;<br />I alone am dark.<br />Other people are sharp;<br />I alone am dull.<br />Other people have purpose;<br />I alone don't know.<br />I drift like a wave on the ocean,<br />I blow as aimless as the wind.<br /><br />I am different from ordinary people.<br />I drink from the Great Mother's breasts.
