Time Each Word You Read Is Already In the Past

Let’s talk about time, no moment lasts, the start of this poem’s already in the past as you read these words I’ve written each word you read is the last word I’ve written, the second you say it you’ve said it this second now reading this already gone and no longer there to witness, no longer exist, the second it’s the present it’s the past, the second it exists it’s extinct, no one moment lasts, present now the past Read the first word and the line above, the first is the present the last is the past, the moment that you read “past” the line is in the past. Life is a forever changing present, and each present stays fixed in the past, fixing your past happens when you fix your future, and fixing your future happens in the present. Your future is your present there is no present your past was your present Your future is your gift There’s no such thing as present in time The past was your gift and your time. Live for the future it’s in your control. And this ladies and gentlemen is the Thinking Deep/Insanity border.

I don’t reckon I’ve got long to go you know, cuckooville is not far away this might even be it. Lucky I’ve always been like this so it’s not like I’m going mad, I’ve always been mad, it’s not that bad being mad. This is a justification of my madness so I’m aware of the madness that means I’m not yet mad :)
