“Forever – is composed of Nows –” by Emily Dickenson

Abstract depiction of Forever is Composed of Nows. A woman's face in a clock that's disintegrating into color.

Forever – is composed of Nows –
‘Tis not a different time –
Except for Infiniteness –
And Latitude of Home –

From this – experienced Here –
Remove the Dates – to These –
Let Months dissolve in further Months –
And Years – exhale in Years –

Without Debate – or Pause –
Or Celebrated Days –
No different Our Years would be
From Anno Dominies –

-Emily Dickenson
