Is Awareness Limited

i remember,
therefore i have come to pass
what is't but retention

something other than the now
to be again forgotten,
and called to mind
once more

that, something of descartes
might prevail
and, by removing itself
be as truth unseen

a first and last,
where-in there is nothing
but the polar opposite,
"i think (therefore).....i am...

therefore i think
i am..."
future-past,
thoughts of a now

but that is naught,
as unspoken truth be
what lies neath,
and unquestioned

sought,
with one eye
to the horizon,
a depth

of mind,
no token,
"i think...
therefore....peace"

To end at peace leaves me trusting that you ended in and not merely with peace. You are (writing), therefore I (am left to) think.

yes...(perhaps to prevent a shut-down) the adjustment was not immediate but all consuming
