Women's Writes

Well-behaved women seldom make history.

Day 27

EDGES

Edges.
Edges of time,
Of space
Of reality.

 Edges of life, where no one can live.
Edges of death, where no one can die.
We can’t see each other,
We can’t see ourselves.

 Time has no edge.
It is eternal
And finite.
Eternal universally,
Finite individually.

 We pass through a short time,
Living between the edges,
Seeing each other,
Seeing ourselves.

 The edges close in.
Darkness falls.
Time ends.
Life ends.

 The universe continues.
