Of a hundred million years
Changing, changing, changing
Always change
One score and five thousand years ago
Human eyes came to see
Human hands learned to make
All our grandiose change
No match for nature’s hand
One score and five thousand years ago
Human eyes came to see
Human hands learned to make
All our grandiose change
No match for nature’s hand
I remind myself
The chaos of such moments
Brings change
The necessity of it
The inevitability of it
Bringing light
To darkness
Bringing purpose
To doubt
Bringing meaning
To listlessness
I cannot see
Into the depths
I cannot see
The other side
How can I ask you
To understand me
Interpretations
Of a world made
From highlights
And shadows
Rendering texture
And line
When it’s no longer possible
To get an image
With a hand-held camera
I sit down
And bask in the immensity
Still, there remain aspects unseen
Valleys undiscovered
Some never to be revealed
