oct 3 ober (kuju hachi) it's time for some winter hibernation 
 
the cold is waking me up 
out of my vague dreamless slumber 
 
i don't want to wake 
i don't want to be alive 
i don't want to be in the coldness 
of the world 
 
what's a friend 
 
how can you care about anyone 
when to cope with being alive 
you must care about nothing 
 
or is there just nothing to care about 
 
what can you care about 
when nothing has meaning 
 
how can anything mean anything 
 
at the center of everything 
is nothing. 
 
 
 
 
at my center 
is a black sphere of nothingness 
 
i am god 
i am everything 
 
i am nothing 
 
 
what is love 
 
recognizing a part of yourself 
in something 
 
what is love 
 
something that does not have 
nothingness 
at its center 
 
 
what is at the center of nothingness 
 
what 
 
 
om namaha shantih ommmm 
 
there is noone but me 
and i am nothing 
 
ommmmmmm 
 
 
go to sleep, 
little child 
 
don't let the angels wake you 
 

 
 
do i have any idea 
what love is 
 
don't leave me all alone! 
 
i exist within you 
 
and without you 
 
who am i. 
 
 
 
you exist within me 
and if you go away, 
who am i? 
 
 
i am an infinitely large, 
infinitely small 
circle of nothingness 
 
love closes in. 
 
 
 
oh poor little heart 
keeps on pumping 
 
 
love closes in on you 
surrounds you 
but do you notice? 
 
if i am nothing 
then there are no parts of me 
in anything else 
and there is nothing to love 
 
nothing loves itself 
it does 
 
it does not 
 
it is the same 
 
 
if i am nothing 
and at the center of everything is nothingness 
then i can recognize a part of myself in everything 
 
 
 
hey ho i don't want to live 
hey the music stopped 
and i can't sing no more 
 
 
i don't want to wake up 
without the part of me 
that used to be there 
before i went to sleep 
 
 
 
there the singing is over 
now i can dance 
 
not in this never ending light 
not in the cold 
 
dance with me, my friend, 
my little sleepy one, 
 
let's dance ourselves back into nothingness 
 
and forget that we ever woke up 
 
alone in this cold place
