Any concept is first a mirror
made of assumptions.
They reflect an unsaid endeavor.
They are the under belly
of rigor towards cause.
They are a mind weave
laid down by repetition as sacred.
There are assumptions layered
upon deeper assumptions.
Inquiry is more like a strip tease,
loitering at the obvious
until the applause of boredom
begets a deeper layer exposed
where by connections
from above and across are made.
Holding to a composition format,
Something is to be gotten
and possibly achieved.
The first issue of thought
is not content itself
but the method of thought
of itself as exemplary and mentor.
Therefore time before time
does sound like a deconstruction
yet it is not.
If we ventured to time before time
would we care to return?
Is there a bleacher seat
held in reserve for a return?
Is the seat of the journey
circular or reciprocal
or even sacrilegious as rhetorical?
Is thought sacred
because of the rules implied?
Is a concept a search?
If every moment is as rich as the last
then is it the lust of the searcher
in the form of ignorance embraced
to further the journey?
Is lower mind an agreement
of permission spent in absent ways?
Time before time may ask for
a transcendence beyond temporality.
How is that reportable?
Time before time as an inquiry
may not be mind lead.
Understanding seems to be
a consensual drag
to its own existence.
How is understanding as a method
justified by numbers or agreement?
Time before time is a bait
for understanding to volunteer.
Understanding may be an initiation
rather than a presence of knowledge.
Maybe time before time
has no relative worth
and therefore no method.
In a world of differentiation
and individuation and objectification,
time before time has no takers.
Even joyless joy has audience
and presence.
Time before time maybe
a run-on sentence of the mind
as thought is script
and consciousness is the reader.
What if, time before time . . .
