While

A Meditation on Temporal Simultaneity

Destiny and fate, providence, prudence, and provision,
to captivate, mesmerize, rivet the occasions, or, to intwine and interlace,
proclaimed, decreed convictions, faiths, amities, alliances,
intentions and vocations, inclinations and leanings,
marchers, walkers, and strikers, encompass, embroil, and entail.

While, the penchants and proclivities steer, engage and embrace, thrust and heave,
influencers and controllers, the streams know well, to foretell the dreams,
the attendants and chaperons, exhibiters and presenters of aptitudes and competencies,
guardians of core, crux, and kernel, they do not abandon the scene.

Anxiously and intently, ajar gaps, cracks, and holes,
the lights, beams, and strikes, the restlessness, fretfulness,
or the bashful, shy, and timid, flying doves,
surrogates of the pastimes, escapisms, and diversions, contemplate, muse, and ponder,
still, flights and flutters to go on,
storms and squalls, do not conjure to, stop the assiduous ramming wings.

Shimmers, glitters, and shines, the blaze, glare and flame,
do they rage and burn, or invoke, petition and reply,
stars to orbit and bond, galaxies to circuit, circle, and ring,
and the unions and clusters, bundles and huddles,
invoke and incite, amble and loiter, the goads, prods, and pokes.

Pending journeys to cringe, the yearns to convulsion and twitch,
while, miraculously, the buds resurface, blossoms wave and wield,
astonishingly, the grass rolls and reels,
and astoundingly, the breeze adheres to dreams,
the air surrounds, breath to caress, glares to trace and touch.

The course and path, the routes and lines, surges and gushes,
and kicks and flexes, rejoin and retort, rejoice to follow, tenets to soar,
the creeds and beliefs, have converged and joined,
the helm and tiller, stand to adore.

Jiffies to evoke, moments have erose, moving the pennants, urging the flows,
the confluence, the union, encounters, abandoned and ditched start to ascend,
overwhelming trends, to steer, charm, and immerse,
to sieve the neglects, riddle the manners,
to sift the banners, to sway the resolve.

Sparks, embers, and glows, springs, leaps, and jumps,
calm, sooth, and appease the inner core, nucleus, the sprint and soul,
surfs and surges, flabbergast, confound, thwart and vanquish,
the tides to teeter, tooter, while the ebbs, endow, entice and flatter.

Themes & Interpretations

“While” as Architecture

The temporal conjunction becomes governing philosophy—existence is fundamentally simultaneous. Parallel realities unfold together; while some forces steer and embrace, others guard and preserve.

Guardians of Kernel

“Guardians of core, crux, and kernel, they do not abandon the scene.” The essential is actively protected; what matters most is perpetually watched over by forces that do not leave.

Moments Have Erose

Time itself becomes textured—”moments have erose”—worn with irregular edges like leaves eaten by passage. Temporal erosion creates openings rather than destruction.

Ebbs That Endow

“The ebbs, endow, entice and flatter.” What withdraws leaves blessing; the departure gifts more than the arrival. Recession becomes bestowal rather than loss.
