splitting infinity

see

two facing mirrors
each an infinity within
you and you and they and we
looking past us and he
seeing me between

says

where in these many is me
am i among those i see
in this me i feel
the you way over here
and a me behind you there

said

when we were few
facing so many of you
the now compressed as then
here flowed up to where
time paused to be

seen.
