Moments Are Alive

Moments Are Alive

A Poem by Anand Sehgal

Moments are colliding against
each other,
everywhere in the time space,
every now and then .

Some are dying ,
Some new are being born.
Moments are coming out of their own wombs,
Triggering a hyper-evolution.

Moments are random ,
Some are losing their way ;
Some are coming back to the right track.

Moments are entities too;
Some are being forgotten ,
Some are becoming endearing in-laws .
Moments, in a nutshell , are
very much like us.

Alert, awakened ;
 In need of proper treatments -
That is how the moments are.

This reminds me of the movie 'Crash,' starring Sandra Bullock, the only similarity being how things collide into one another; or in the case of the movie, they crash. Things seemingly unrelated, always are; and those that you hate the most end up rescuing you in the end. If moments don't collide, we're not living. The alternative would be still and silent.

The ending is a perfect summation: how we must handle with proper care.

Atomic collisions between moments, fusing to become more poignant, more memorable, and splitting to be forgotten in the infinite void. Moments have their own drive, it seems, a mind of their own and an agenda to which they accord. Great poem! :)

Thank you so much Matt, Glad that you liked the piece and found substance in it :)
Lives are made up of many moments, Anand, but how many do we remember, or indeed, how many are memorable? They seem to pass too quickly to count, but pile up faster than we can deal with them. We can only hope that the ones we make count outnumber the ones we waste.

"Some are dying ,
Some new are being born.
Moments are coming out of their own wombs,
Triggering a hyper-evolution."~You encapsulated a thought provoking write, especially this stanza...
I often wonder are we evolving within each moment?...
The optimistic part of me believes so...Well penned!~xoxo~

thanks a lot. Love you :)
Moments are a rare thing, if we think clearly about it... moments, are just little time-clouds, hanging, and giving us a certain mood, a feeling, a memory, moments are you and me, we all are moments, by breathing even out, it was a moment that passed away... interesting analogy here my friend. Well written.

You say moments are a bit like us and they are 'in need of proper treatments.' I crtainly agree with that. Interesting to see you are using your science background!
