wot Creationists don't want you to know

Heterochrony


Tied to the past,

The future spreads wings like chronoscopic threads:

A gossamer dream of polychronic flight.


The present is a node or prism,

Through which kaleidoscopic butterflies

Pass fleetly into a convergent past,

And, metamorphosing into trilobites,

Crawl downward to oblivion.


Publ. Twisted #3, 1986
