Swift drift
The contents of the coming lines
are taken from what lies behind
projected to my reading mind
persuading it that it did find
a way to write its thoughts ahead
'though they're rewritten past instead
taken for something never read
'though experienced before instead
then strangely put to read through words
so an illusion just occurred
but the very way it seemed to work
stays after all really absurd
wrapped in future obscurity
since if this all was only memory
the meaning seems trapped by a creed
that is experienced as a need
for finding some new ways indeed
just to divine the future's seed
even remembering is new
each and every very now we do
what exactly is coming through?
what reality's out of the blue?
Even the future coming to be...
what if this all was only memory?
is there a way to disagree...
what if this all was nothing but memory?
My strangest doubt did ask me
what if this all was only memory?
how could I never see...
