Crossing Timelines

In the sudden certainty of the moment

when we least expect the past

We are thrown into the future

yet the mythos has been lost

A symmetry breaking in our worldview

produced the metaphysical 

out of the mythopoietic

and we are left wandering

slowly turning toward each other

as the timelines criss-cross

and the heterochronic era dawns

ontopoems and other catastrophies
