Time

What is is immutable

the state that is

is an infinite colorful bead

evanescent.

It is time who sees, and weaves

the next moment with law.

It applies the myriads of forces and forms

within the bead.

It applies the law

to design the next bead

in continuous, wave-like fashion.

Point-less. Seamless.

Continuous wave-spider of all that is

time.

I believe I guide it

with my will and desire.

I strive, hope, and trust

to achieve what I will.

But these wills, these desires, beliefs,

these fears, hopes, pleasures, and pains,

merely forces and forms

just colors in the bead

just waves.

Not guides nor oracles nor heroes

nor villains nor victims

but to my separate sub-self,

within the bead

this infinite bead.

These words, mere forms

these thoughts, mere directions

the bead sees itself

and explores.
