Time

Time                      is the beginning.

In the beginning--
or what for the sake of sanity
I shall call the beginning--
there was Time.

An artisan crafting each moment,
Time is a ham-fisted, but methodical,
personification
pounding us--
living and dying,
animate, inanimate--
into shape
for the next moment,
so that
Each moment can be flipped
like a child's drawing pad
and we--
much more exquisitely designed
than that child's stick figure dream--
fit within each moment,
a perfect symphony of sound,
color,
motion,
moving fluidly--

But one moment by itself
is
a frozen, unreal world
soundless
colorless soulless
--joined by violent flapping
through Time's 3-D
Infinite drawing pad.
