Time (Space) and Self

(For one)

I don't want

(to know more of)

the way seconds never cease colliding into

(something, either external or internal to)

others in a rippling shimmer of

(the consciousness, is)

moments that never possess the finality

(a divine madness of quantification.)

which we cry of to

(The Ego, who comparatively weighs)

others in re-tellings of

(self against anything not defined by)

our lives. This

(the chemical current of self-awareness,)

is a truth too often refused

(in accepting such divine madness)

from our emotional responses

(begins a spewing tornado of self deterioration)

to physical objects

(as the universe which contains self)

and our fluctuating position

(begins to fully exist.)

to them. Yet, in that

(As the universe is more fully known)

i live in a continual agony

(by constructs of the conscious self,)

which knows not the ceasing satisfaction of

(the increasingly perceived universe, which begins to outweigh)

the total fulfillment of

(constructs of self,)

a singularity of identity in space and time,

(makes existence appear impossible)

are the screams of my eternality.
