Method for the suspension of time
Marijn Degenaar
imagine time
imagine time as a liquid. like tiny droplets of dew
falling, floating down
until they reach the very top of your eyelash
staying there, suspended
these tiny beads drip slowly down and multiply
touching your neck, your shoulders
all the way down to the tips of your toes
imagine the moon and its oceans
its silvery glow shining through the droplets of time
the bright moon is a pearly liquid
a wedge of silvery light, dividing the darkened ceiling above you
like the cross-section of a blade, whose edge rests between shadows
cuts through and gleams in twilight
this is where time ceases
a crystallised shimmer envelops and carries you
