Simple heart
In the midst
Of a rather mystical place
An unexpected riddle
arose from the stones
An ancient pendulum
Resting above
Timeless
Which, when unwound, belied a truth
Either forgotten, or undiscovered
time
As we know it
In its own fragile measure
Was created by the rhythmic heartbeat
Of one man
centuries ago
Galileo Galileo
And in that most generous present moment
my own heart stills
and I am reminded of the magic
of the place in your heart where I live
of the place in my heart where you live
And how fleeting this time is
Ever odd, dimensional, forgotten,
Lost like treasure buried in the sands of the ancient pasts
impermanent
And the pendulum,
Whose amplitude ever so quietly slows
meets the rhythm of my heart
In its coherence with yours
