In the here and now

illustrator: Boyana Petkova

Some say

there is no now,

just this hairline crack

between the past

and the future

in which we sense

our presence.

 

Others say

there is nothing

but the now,

and the now

is eternal,

expansive.

 

This is not an argument.

It’s a paradox.
