Within the Folds

Within the Folds

Within the Folds
Within the Folds…time and space eternal.

 

Within the folds of a timeless collapsing of space,
all is reduced to a single point,
sucked into an infinitesimal origin
from which we were all came, in life, in existence,
as expansion predicated what evolved as life.

Mirrors within mirrors, states within sates,
opposites and destinations the yin and yang of intention,
displayed in a vast and seemingly endless countenance,
as we, a speck in a vacuum, perceive existence,
try to fathom the causation and results of omniscient will.

How small our minds, to perceive eternity,
how vast a mind to have created it,
and we, in our arrogance, expect to understand,
expect to hypothesise and deliberate origins
as if God our direct line of understanding,
when truth may render we are so far removed from favour.

Within the folds of time, the beat of motion,
we are dust revisited, husks with reason,
barely able to discern ourselves, let alone life,
and we may posture, stand for righteous belief,
yet in the end we are but dust amalgamated into arrogance.

    And to dust we will return. I love your mind, your thoughts and how you can put them into words so beautifully, Tony. And I love the way you always help me to become more aware of what is within myself.

    Glad you relate and reconsider your thoughts. We are all here to learn from each other and share this crazy journey. Take care Phyllis.
