Simultaneous

I've lived this life a billion times

No memory of any

Synchronous second to year

Future and past all the present

Layers of nothing

Bent twisted transparency

Evaporated mirage

Dehydrated dreams

  

Eating apples from a tree not yet planted

Drinking rain not yet fallen

Bleeding from a wound healed

Speaking with dead lips sealed

That encapsulates my general conceptualisation of ‘everything all at once’ and always. So happy to have ‘stumbled’ upon this gem 🙏🏻 good reading here Soren.

[Soren]

So glad to have you with me Red your read means a great deal. Your poems provoke a great deal of thought and often are similar to my thoughts. Your words are deeply appreciated.

Reading the poem made me think of the continuity of existence beyond the bounds of flesh. I thought of a millions years lived, countless lives lived, tasting the same rain, breathing the same air and dreaming the same dreams. The last 2 lines are just awesome. You're such a deep thinker, dear Soren. There's always something to think about, on your pages.

You are too kind dear Divya your words fall like rain on dry ground. They are most appreciated.
