Arc of Time




P
anoramic beliefs are too grand
too grand for us ordinary folks
 ~ who work each day,
~ pay our bills

a long line of ancestral geniuses  
believed in the arts and sciences of the universe
~ Galileo who named our sun a star
~ ancients who dared say the earth was round

and in this age of modernity
when belief in arts and sciences wavers
~ those who believed in digital magic
~ created the world wide web to connect us all

In this mundane and ordinary world
we have our own grand perspectives
~ we each cherish our own beliefs
~ create our own worlds of life and living.

“Man is what he believes.”
~ Anton Chekhov
