I want multifaceted insect vision
the world dancing
in hundreds of frames
fusing into what kind
of picture
in a mind
that is more ganglion
than anything
or, I want to turn my head
180 degrees, owl-like and feathered
to see where I have been
or what’s chasing me
clearly, kind of a facing down
while running away
but neither option
is available.
For whatever reason
we see weakly
and not behind us,
always forward
in a strange
biological confidence

How true…for good and for bad, methinks. Good one.
Thanks, Nelle–yes, I want foresight and hindsight
reviewing the past, contemplating the future and wondering….!
exactly….you so get me 🙂
interesting muse today 🙂
LOL, yes–rough day 🙂 but productive on so very many levels…
The past imperfect…the present non-continuous and the future present……and here I take liberties with tense and aspect in English! Incidentally, the words of Oogway are very apposite here – “You are too concerned with what was and what will be. There’s a saying: “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.” Du courage. Tu t’en sortiras!
Thank you so much, Noel–Et, oui–je vais m’en sortire
Oh my goodness, is the French corner of my brain awakening?
