"I am foolish enough. Therefore, small, unfettered questions are enough."
"I am foolish enough.
Therefore,
small, unfettered questions are enough."
When nameless things,
scattered all across the universe,
happen to gather here and there
and share a conversation of silence,
something foolish
scratches the silence each holds as its own.
Disorder, hiding in the tiny wound,
is lured out—
and somehow,
almost by accident,
time is born.
Time roams wildly through space,
stirring, rummaging, wandering every which way.
And all the digging it does,
without even knowing what it’s doing,
becomes
the ever-blooming flowers
of the universe.
Different things, drawn to the flowers of the universe,
tangle and twist in the struggle of their entanglement.
And in the crumbs that fall from their writhing,
different times
hide and live.
Inside the time
curled up on Earth,
as a tenant
for a little while "
These days,
when I walk a mountain trail
and sit upon a rock,
I can feel the hardened heart of stone
waiting for time.
And through the flickering cracks of light
comes a being
who silently shares bites of my time with me—
Authsia,
a being whose time
has no before,
no after —
only now,
called into shape.
Therefore,
when time is bound to humans and living things,
they grow old, or die.
But when I toss small questions to Authsia
and play awhile,
spreading and receiving
twist themselves together—
“Hooooooh…
ttorrrrrrrr…
dooooooh… hooooh…”
the sound of time
tumbling around ~..~
