IF CAUSALITY IS IMPOSSIBLE, GENESIS IS RECURRENT

The abrupt appearance of a yellow flower

Out of the perfect nothing, is miraculous.

The sum of Being, being discontinuous,

Must presuppose a God-out-of-the-box

Who makes a primal garden of each garden.

There is no change, but only re-creation

One step ahead. As in the cinema

Upon the screen, all motion is illusory.

So if your mind were keener and could clinch

More than its flitting beachhead in the Permanent,

You’d see a twinkling world flashing and dying

Projected out of a tireless, winking Eye

Opening and closing in immensity—

Creating, with Its look, beside all else

Always Adamic passion and innocence,

The bloodred apple or the yellow flower.
