All At Once
by Evelynn Kahan
I’ve often thought of the many levels
which exist simultaneously.
Outside, on a glorious day like today,
Ocean and ant and me
Me and you
Me, you and the Sudans
Me, you the ant and ocean, the Sudans, outer space
The universe
All together
This moment.
Me loving you
You thinking of an oil change
The ant finding a crumb, how to carry it
The ocean’s plastics floating … Curious food for turtles
A telescope trained on Mars
Black holes
All at once.
