“I’ll call mum and tell her about that”
There isn’t even time for those words to form in thought
They are just felt
Joy, grief, longing
So close together
And so quickly
That it’s almost at the same time
In one heartbeat
In a fragment of a moment
And if you could look at time through a microscope
It would show a whole other world
A complex vortex of feeling
On the pin head of a moment in time

In one heartbeat
In a fragment of a moment
And if you could look at time through a microscope

A complex vortex of feeling
On the pin head of a moment in time
Standing at the photocopier thinking about how grief and time are not linear …
