each moment of time

each moment of time,
of slowing down, of stopping,
of acceleration, of passing quickly
dependent on the interplay
and inner work of
human emotions amidst creativity
the only given taking away,
stripping bare, dissolving, melting,
melting within the divine gaze,
melting into inner divinity,
melting, melting into poetry
