Small, Medium At Large Units...

Define paradigm since time

immemorial does find

me defied, electrified, and generated

fascination within my mind,

despite spacious essence invisible to blind

people, or even those blessed to find

pointed laser insight more pertinent,

when a visible beam shined

into infinite void of space,

where coordinates aligned

since humans stood erect

to measure existential blocks assigned

within very brief span that consigned

an average life on terrestrial

firmament more of a grind,

when omnipotent self importance

mandates no child shall be left behind,

yet unwittingly civilization dictates

everyone must be forcibly inclined

to synchronize, mechanize, and harmonize,

their every breath entwined

analogous to a pinned insect specimen

semi restricted to maneuver within

nebulous unseen all encompass

sing fourth dimension since...

my Neanderthal ancestors

huddled around protective hearth

yet,...no idea when,

(whether before

my conception, in utero, or at birth)

my noggin got gripped

with names woolworth

their weight in precious

gems or even salt

(steeped from legacy bygone ancient

civilizations) linkedin lightly

peppered planetary girth

various passages of time,

each mortal allotted on Earth

(measured in seconds, minutes,

hours, days, weeks, months...)

one season does leave,

and another one fall lows win touring

Santa's sleigh for those who believe

conveniently evinced as sands

slipping down humongous sieve

denoting reasons for joy or to grieve

and inquisitiveness attuned

when every station broadcasts

countdown by Jeeve

parsing segments, not only prompting

objectives I did satisfactorily achieve

(during another orbit of Gaia,

when passage of time

signifying poignant heave

ho every New Year's Eve),

but really the entire ticking

tocking clock scaffold

poses as an artificial construct,

as well the jolly green giant

with one or another

expansive FLOTUS on his/her greensleeve.
