Sideways

I did a double take today
Saw myself sideways and backwards
Saw myself in half
Saw myself see

I did a double take today
Looked at the same thing differently
Looked, passed the future
Looked into past 

I did a double take today
Beheld nothing and everything
Beheld from a distance
Beheld as is

I did a double take today
Knew the newness of chaos
Knew the old adage
Knew the void

I did a double take today
Saw myself vulnerable, unseen
Saw myself thoroughly 
Saw myself through
