One year collapses into one second,
a lifetime, an instant.
History moves apace
codetermined by human action
coterminous with human will.
Time stretches, gnaws at our tails.
Shrinks to drag us along.
Moments of clarity send
links between body and mind.
no more waivering.
Subject and object collide,
lucidity sends
sham dualities tumbling.
Each thought, each step slices
carrying parts of preceding potential.
We dance with history's unfinished business.
-GWB
