"NOW...LIVE!"
"NOW...LIVE!"
I place a tree...there.
I place a sky...here.
I add a bird...
I...subtract a bird.
I alter a mountain
place it to the left...to the right.
I let the little stream run.
I add a sun.
( turn it up).
I walk between
the spaces between seconds
check each moment is
- perfect.
Only then do I allow
time to
unfurl
flap in the breeze.
Then I stop it all.
I adjust a a molecule
or two.
Place you at
the centre
of the big green field
you in your dress of
bright blue.
Then I, like a long ago
Sultan
or a third-rate magician
command the memory:
"Now, live!"
