Slowly But Surely

Something strange happened.
I discovered that the ‘same’ nails are never always the same.
Physical stuff change…
slowly sometimes but surely.

The day before yesterday, I checked my fingernails.
They were on the verge of being too long,
but still tolerable.
I decided not to cut them.

Yesterday, I scratched with my fingernails.
They had become too long,
and too intolerable.
I decided to cut them.

Something strange happened…
I discovered that the ‘same’ feelings are never always the same.
Mental stuff change…
suddenly sometimes and surely.
