an odyssey
Change the future and change the past.
All moments exist, simultanious
possibility & memory. Us,
trapped by feeble perceptions, last
to understand dimensions unseen,
we deny eternity, we pray for
another life, a better life, just more,
never wondering what it might mean
until the collapse. With one future lapsed,
possibilities like floodwater, free
to overwhelm, threaten to drown, but we
flail thru the darkness, toward a repast
that will sate our hunger and may bring us
comfort, after pain, on a fair shore.
