In the Blink of an Eye

In the Blink of an Eye

A Poem by Miss Mary Jane

Eyes closed still see the whole world,

Omnisciently searching, all knowing.

Seeing your birth, your life, and your death.

There was never a beginning, just an ending.

Written in the stars and nebulas,

What has created us.

What we have created will destroy us.

In a blink of an eye, we could see our world

flip-flying by.

This piece rings with a certain truth... Yet, my mind has chosen to see it in perhaps a different context.

(Note from a news media source - Year 4578)
The world's inhabitants are eagerly awaiting the official word from the department of Space and Temporal Engineering, on when the event will occur. In less than two days, we know they will utilize their new techonology and take the entire planet back into a point in time where there will be no threat from the enlarging sun.

(Note from the gates of Heaven - Year 2012)
Dear heavenly father. We here at heavens gate are still perplexed by the sudden doubling of life force and the Earth's subsequent explosion. We will have Angelic Engineering specialists at ground zero shortly. We will keep you appraised of this tragic situation.

In a sense...it's liquid time and life never really knows where the currents might take it.

Great Poem! Got me inspired! :)
