Some Things Cannot Be Captured

A short poetic reflection on time, nature, philosophy, social media and humanity’s attempt to capture moments that may ultimately transcend us.

I’ve
been listening
to a lot of podcasts

fusing philosophy
with god-like
power

raising matter
but my sense
stoops low

for if time
like nature
must die

can I stay
higher
on living?

as I paused
and snapped
this poster

posted on
social media –
it’s like
1984

a little boy
running ’round
in the past –

now
moving into space
& so forth.

& if time
has no space,
has no end,

then let us continue…
