White Hairs

by Wang Wei

Wang Wei

Once a tiny child now an old man.
White hairs to match the soft down.
How the heart gets hurt by life.
Beyond the Gateless Gate's
Where craving ends.

    by Sylvia Plath
    Not easy to state the change you made. If I'm alive now, then I was dead, Though, like a stone, unbothered by it, Staying put according to habit.
