The Chant of Medusa © Ann Moradian. All rights reserved.
I do not ask to know
knowing that knowing is past;
knowing that knowing now
means living now, no more.
I do not ask to know
knowing that knowing cannot be held;
knowing that knowing cannot be held,
alone.
I do not ask to know
knowing that knowing is moving, through time;
knowing that knowing
knows only a moment.
I do not ask to know
knowing that knowing is memory
of a moment before.
Trapped in a moment, motionless
for a lifetime, knowing
a memory.
Living now no more.
Living now, no more.
Moving forward with the moment that is now
now now
now --
Knowledge carries me in its arms.
Dare I see?
I do not ask to know
knowing that knowing cannot be held;
knowing that knowing
can only be known being held.
I ask to be-held and be-hold.
Sharing this moment in time and space;
beholden to each other by membering the moment that is now
now now
now --
