Reinventing Time


Knowledge of the future

memories of the past

Caught within a final vacuum

dissipating fast 

 

Wanton disbelieving

 eyes are liars still

Perception changed then rearranged

sensation thrice distilled 

 

The philosophy of physics

 logicians burn and melt

Time but smirks as gravity flirts

 judgment prior dealt 

 

Memories of the future

knowledge of the past

Once you slow the ebb and flow

— the moment is recast 

 

(Dreamsleep: August, 2024)
