always and never share the same secret
it’s right on the tip of everyone’s tongue,
energetically speaking, that is
the camouflage is indisputable
its truth is unpronounceable by the human mouth
curious minds would ask why
but time will not reveal its source
is it in the space between
looking out and what is seen?
the space between what is said
and what is heard?
between what is taken to be familiar
and what is really there?
is it a race that time invented
but has no ending?
it is a beyond that has us
as in its immediate past?
what could always and never have to share?
is it that they mutually exist
outside our capacity to discern
one from the other, clearly?
is it that they cause
the same generic response in us
for our eventual conclusion or account.
it must be that they leave us
perplexed in much the same way
with either one being the cause.
it must be the always and never
left discern at the altar of understanding
and never looked back
to see that response
that humans often have . . .
