it’s raining
again

time
marches on

~
remembering
rain

along
with a song

~
they sound
both
the same

though
both
are long gone

~
combing through
content

contained
in a song

with the rain
with a name

but the moment
is gone

~
moment by moment
the moment
hangs on

seemingly real
‘til time
with real done

~
moment
by moment

a moment
moves on

“Livingdying,” to Cid Corman, expressed the universal co-existence of being and non-being within individual moments, and this experience common among all.
