For A Second

for a second there

i was able to answer

within a second

the riddles of our times

outside the seconds

all those questions

that ever needed

an answer

all those answers

that needed

to be explained

all the time

that was saved

all the time

to be brave

and for a slight second

the universes

opened up and

showed me

my eyes are still dazzled

my throat is still dry

my mind was melted for a moment

i just stared into the sky

a mere malleable mind moment

as i didn't even try

to resist or refrain

and then it was gone

but for a second

a smidge

i was in it

in it truly

(for a second)

balls and all
