Consciousness comes in
and it pours into us
Like the surf rolling in
And it ripples and riptides
Crustaceans and sunshine fumble
Pebbles mix and carbon replaces
And that consciousness never dries up
It wades and bays
Then it withdraws
leaving
an imprint
that lasts a billion years
and
is then replaced with something infinite
holistic, continuous,
individual when needed
and squarely incomprehensible
I mean, everlasting
You are
I was
We now
I love you Leslie
