Illusions Foray

What side can you judge infinity from,

  the front or then the back

 

If it’s never over, or never ends,

  how then can you protract

 

Can infinity stop and start again,

  would it be different or the same

 

Can judgment ever qualify,

  what it can’t even name

 

If generalizations are generally true,

  what can we really know

 

With the distance between our hopes and dreams,

  beyond what time can show

 

One step forward and one step back,

  micromanaging the present away

 

The ideas you profess, whose laws you tout,

   tethering emptiness—to illusions foray
