The World Is Folded in to Every Object

By Richard Mather

The world is folded in to every object

And each thing or idea is the folding

And unfolding of space, time and history.

And the atom is folded and refolded

Until the outside becomes inside

And matter becomes thought.

Matter folded and refolded

And unfolded over and again,

Until it's thin and translucent,

Like consciousness.
