Transient

     Immediate

       Memory

          Essential

 

On consideration of the enigma of the profuse

That which is always obtuse

As your shadow moves along with you when you seek it

Not to be found

And cannot be proven to exist

  when it's  existance is not of question

         afterward

 

 

          to the shade it casts

               on solid obects

that are still in the present at least half of the time

and a half time recess always lingers in the shadows

once you've gotten where you are going

most of the time

Solidly. who'd know a difference

   of a man sometimes  

An' another  sometimes    

One be recessing in the fair shadows

   some of the time

And the other invisibly recessing

   in the shade of his own shadow

    some of the time

 

Essentially

           one is a deceiver of two

    to point at the shade

         The other transiently remembers the essentials

             -that he cannot catch an honest  witness to 
                     

                      T

                       
                            I                            

                                   M

                                          E
