Endless Time
December 7, 2015
An uneasy structure
protected and edges lie
grains protecting from an
outside brutality
seemingly endless time
poignant and presence
wonders, curiosity, and collections
coded geometric fables
oneself's exploring pessimism
uncertainty with identity
bottles, jars, and books from life
but the constant presence of loss

The poem was inspired by a piece of work I saw in a modern art museum in Massachusetts, called MassMoCA. The art piece, was an octangular shaped room, that was jam high with the collections of a man that had died. He had collected all of the objects on his travels around the world. Even though the room was filled with amazing things, I felt a sence of loneliness, as without the owner there was no real significance or meaning to the belongings in the room.
