this is a poem whose page is the fabric of time
picture a silvered needle and thin black thread
i am the needle these words are the thread thus
you are the fabric of time you see how wrong it
would be to attempt a poem whose page dimension
was the whole of time that would be plain silly
so you are the fabric of time and hence you are
the poem the needle of I stitches in the thread
of these words and because you is both singular
and plural you is also you and you are also you
and this fabric is a quilt built in many layers
time is not time in this place of virtual poems
poems are still poems in this place whether you
like it or not although place is still open for
debate among the people who refuse to live here
this is a poem whose page is the fabric of time
picture a silvered needle and thin black thread

end
