I’m in a car, I’m all aghast:
I swear I see for driving fast,
That time is here, not just the cast,
But inward side I see at last.
At present speed that which moves by
Was not the lead or back will fly.
In center all is one on high
Like concentrate in front my eye.
I see it all as one for now
And last it will until I plow
Through side and out onto the bow
And then I’ll sit and wonder how.
For this the time I’ll try not think
Of outward climb into the out.
So back sublime I go to where
I look at time without a care.
