Exponential Potential

Once upon a concept
far, far closer than thought
and further away than
the last tick of the clock.

The space between nothing
became something.

Fourteen billion years
of space… expanding.

Inside, NOTHING!

And then about
two hundred thousand
years ago on a wet rock
no where near the middle
the beginning or the end.

Mankind said;
"Ug!"

It took a while
for mankind to appreciate
the variable nuances
of something in nothing.

About two ticks
of a clock actually…

Comparatively anyway…
What’s two hundred thousand
compared to fourteen billion?

Which means nothing
outside, because time…
Doesn’t exist
in nothing.

And truthfully
it don’t mean much
inside either…

Except for the past
one hundred years
give or take
a decade or two.

Which isn’t even
a tenth of a hundredth
of a tick of a tock
of a clock on a rock
inside… nothing.

A concept which is now
far, far closer than thought…

Exponential potential.
