Now.

[jackshoegazer]

One morning we looked
backward.

We had never looked
backward
before.

Before is the name
of the beast we conjured
by looking
backward.

All we can do is strive
to stay a hair's breadth
before it.

One eye back, moving
forward.

This is delicious. What with LJ site maintenance this morning, I didn't have a chance to say so earlier. I hope after all this is through (and before you're teaching a million people) you can take time to do a lot more creative writing.
