I am sickly
feeling the shutdown coming..
So vicariously
I swim the oceans of time
on the waves of those who follow
I am tossed
from peak to peak..
diving valley to valley
as I close my eyes
to the senses
of what they cannot partake
The time has come
the moments are seconds..
and seconds are fleeting
an hour is an eternity in comparison
Perspectives have shifted
I have reached the Black Hole of existence
and I waver at the edge
I am in the nexus..
on the cusp of forever
and timeless
Frozen
A delicious moment
not meant
to be shared
Peace
