I Can Only Think

About infinity

For a brief time

Otherwise, my head hurts


The same goes

For a moment

Infinity is forever

Moments are gone

As soon as they arrive

While both are

Experienced simultaneously



Besides, how can you

Think about either separately

When they are both connected




Moments blend together

From one moment to the next

In a specific direction

According to “time’s” arrow

Usually followed linearly

With nary a do over

(Eggs never unbreak) yet…


“You can’t make an omelet,
without breaking eggs.”


No two people can step
Into the same river
Likewise, one person can
Never step in the same river
Everything has changed
From water gone by to
Sensations felt of cold and wet
Indifferent to radical
Perceptions take place
Each momentary instant
Depending on what was
Carried into the river
Or crossing a street
Everything is the same while
Nothing is remotely similar

“Just an observation,
Maybe I need
Different glasses.”
