Hey it’s been a while… been following some discussions from time to time, 
lurking I guess…. 

without further ado this is what I am musing on – today at least --  in the 
form of a poem. 

 

Time a Musing

 

Time, this tapestry upon which the stories of the universe are written.

This weave, spun from dancing kaleidoscope threads

Giving us our view of the world, but whose cloth, yet.. has always been.

This chaotic wave of emerging reality sweeping all in the foamy curl of 
collapsing superposition.

Fixing in time, becoming written, juxtaposed, interpolated, incorporated

In the mind… reifying each moment just lived, (as it dawns on us) into our 
living stories, our edifices of memories, convictions, dreams, hopes and fears 
as well.

 

Each moment perceived an inner splash… with all the follow on repercussions!

The private inner narrative of our minds -- that which we sense as being 
ourselves – itself emerges from this complex roiling sea of interactions

Appearing within us out from the mist of this reified stream of perceived 
instants, clanging about in the chatty electric circus of the brain, engaging 
in a loud shouting match with what just happened.

Out of this noise of introspection, argument and emergent consensus, events 
become sown into ourselves, becoming assumed and adopted through interaction 
with our inner prisms.

Our voice, speaking the narrative of our mind’s inner reflections on life… on 
time… is itself like an afterglow.

Each moment becoming the next, gone before the experience of the former has 
happened… we are propelled forward in time.

 

Time itself may not exist (maybe?), but the experience of time very much does.

Perhaps… it is our introspective theater of and reflection on our experience 
that, in the end, is the meaning and purpose of time itself.

Time… how the universe engages in thinking about itself.

 

 

Cheers… and be nice to each other… from time to time.

-Chris
