A degree of separation: A degree of change

 

A degree of separation

to the hidden space

from -a split second found-

between the words and the meaning

to words a minute older

to the un-found space

to pen or key-board to page or screen

and time's arrowed leaning

all writings are simultaneously

and multi-pace 

ushered in and abandoned out

repeatedly 

and left- resolved

waiting

until upon reflection

they are then un-solved

but left again abandoned

nothing is ever finished

but a matter of separation

all things are alas abandoned

all things change

all things become

Universal property

all things remain in stasis

all things finally  

remain in change.

Simply great poem. An insightful use of 'the constancy of change' idea which is both interesting and well constructed.
