Beyond Time and Space

Beyond Time and Space

Was Twe (That Which Experiences)

And nothing was Twe

Twe was curious

Twe wanted some new

Twe wanted something different

So they came into being

Xir started the big bang

And it felt

And fae hurled

And exploded.

And crashed

And banged

And kept expanding

Wider and wider

And all things came from her

All things came through it

Zey were everything

And the space between

She was space

And zie was nothing at all

From the tiniest particle

To the heaviest star

They did it all

And tey kept on

And he was planets

She was galaxies

Dey were solar systems

And the gravity that held them

She was universal

Trying new combinations

Developing

Creating

Evolving

Revolving

And he was information

Zey sent information

It was response

And the responder

Fey called

And he would answer

And zay had one desire

And that desire

Was to experience

To try every

All at once

In all the various ways

In everything

And keep going

Keep creating

Keep modifying

Keep surviving

Keep thriving

And experience

I wrote this poem detailing my suspicions about existence. TWE is a term for "that which experiences" I wrote it when I was interested consciousness and why we experience and why we cant see or measure "consciousness". My suspicions are grounded in one unexplainable thing: our endless desire to adapt, survive essentially, the will to live, everything every living thing share the will to live. From bacteria to homo-sapians we all have 1 thing in common: to continue experiencing. It is highlighted by our will to live and for some the desire to reproduce, some to create legacy. I don't know. But the heights of creativity innate to all living creature to adapt, survive and continue the experience says so much to me.
