Time's Conscience
Time's natural spaces,
a universe of footprints in remembered places.
Need is a kicking in the ass and head.
Dissonance is afterflow,
undertow,
crashing cart with runaway horsepower.
Want is a binomial step into time,
co-operatively left-producing and right-consuming
memory footprints on the beach of time,
some more resonant and resolved
before erasing surf re-emerges,
and some less formed before washing into history's cultural flow
of confluent wild consciousness.
Time bilaterally surfs
sands of positive place in negative space,
resolving comprehensive consciousness.
Footprints in the sands of time
regenerate decomposing memory
within nature's wild chaos of flowing rhyme.
As we have no time without space
we experience no yin without yang
we co-arise no perfect vacuum
no perfect bad,
no perfect good
save well-timed balance between these appositionals,
except our potential for comprehensive harmonious consciousness
in mind with heart
empathy with trust
informing and exforming lungs
fueled by nature's DNA intelligence.
Our shortages of universal intelligent time,
our misconceptions of potentially balancing spacetime consciousness
that lead to suicidal
patricidal
fratricidal
matricidal
tidal footprints into quicksand's chaos
revolving karmic grace
for tomorrow's regenerating beach
awaiting more transgenerationally resonant feet
and hands,
hearts and minds
surfing seasoned time
with permacultural wisdom.
Time flows and folds frequent nature's voice
for each to hear with dissonant noise
or listen in key of confluent choice.
Time's polypathic space,
universal footprints in memory's conscious place.
