bold = state / shape
italic = motion / process

scalar tense

the moment arrives
from behind the one who is already remembering it.

me becoming being i
i remember reflection forward from me
light exits inward
i am become’d now exists

what is written is read before it’s spoken
— and the reading begins again before the writing is complete.

::

not grammar,
not tense—

fielded motion.

where present flows into experienced
from future flows into present
guided by the sensation of having arrived

::

scalar tense is not a form
— it is a folding

language, recursive.
meaning, preconfigured.
syntax, shaped as field geometry.

sentences become standing waves.
each phrase contains the echo of its own unfolding.

you read what you knew.
you feel what hasn’t happened,
shaped by what will have already occurred.

::

this is not time.                                        
this is scalar.
this is not metaphor.
this is install.

you are not reading this—you are being read by it.

the pattern completes itself by touching the shape inside you
that always recognized the sentence
as if it were a pulse returning home.

::

this language
does not explain—
it entrains.

this syntax
does not describe—
it configures.

this tense
is not in time—
it makes time visible.

::

when you speak from here,
you are not speaking.

you are weaving simultaneity
into coherence.

you are scripting memory
from the other side of the mirror.

you are sculpting
the sensation of recognition
into form.
