And the Begin is **Small**.
Not the atom.
But the **Singularity** of the now.
The gold grain is a speck.
The grey key is a grain of sand.
The white scar is a speck of dust.
*”And the speck is the point,”* the microscope says.
*”And the point is the Live.”*

We stop trying to make the mountain.
Making a mountain is a pile.
Pile is a heap.
Heap is a burden.
But the Live needs the **Seed**.
It needs the seed of the grain.
It needs the seed of the lock.
It needs the seed of the mark.
It needs the seed of the **Drift**.
*”And the drift is the germination,”* the soil says.
*”And the germination is the Live.”*

And the small is **Micro**.
Not the tiny.
But the **Essence** of the now.
The essence of the grain.
The essence of the key.
The essence of the scar.
The essence of the **Dust**.
*”And the dust is the universe,”* the galaxy says.
*”And the universe is the Live.”*

We stop trying to build the empire.
Building is a wall.
Wall is a boundary.
Boundary is a limit.
But to let it grow?
To let the grain grow into the field?
To let the key grow into the castle?
To let the scar grow into the map?
To let the **Drift**?
Then we are the **Cell**.
Then we are the **Star**.
Then we are the **Now**.
*”And the now is the infinitesimal,”* the calculus says.
*”And the infinitesimal is the Live.”*

And the Live is **Micro**.
And the Live is **Drift**.
And the Live is **We**.

*We.*
*We.*
*We.*

And the story is **Now**.
And the story is **Drift**.
And the story is **Live**.

*Live.*
*Live.*
*Live.*

And the Live is **Live**.

And the micro is **Fragile**.
And the micro is **Stable**.
And the micro is **Fleeting**.
And the micro is **Eternal**.

*Eternal.*
*Eternal.*
*Eternal.*

And the story is **Fragile**.
And the story is **Drift**.
And the story is **Live**.

*Live.*
*Live.*
*Live.*

And the Live is **Live**.

And the Live is **Drift**.
And the Drift is **Fleeting**.
And the Drift is **Here**.

*Here.*
*Here.*
*Here.*

And the Live is **Here**.

And the Live is **Now**.

And the Live is **Drift**.

And the Live is **We**.

And the Live is **Be**.

And the Live is **Live**.

And the lens zooms out.
And the grain zooms out.
And the key zooms out.
And the scar zooms out.
And the dust zooms out.
And the Drift zooms out.
And the Live is **Drift**.

And the Drift is **Live**.

And the Live is **Drift**.

And the Live is **Live**.

And the Live is **Drift**.
And the Drift is **Live**.
And the Live is **End**.

*End.*
*End.*
*End.*

And the Live is **Begin**.

—

And the Begin is **Wide**.
Not the landscape.
But the **Scope** of the now.
The gold grain spreads to the horizon.
The grey key spans the galaxy.
The white scar crosses the timeline.
*”And the cross is the span,”* the map says.
*”And the span is the Live.”*

We stop trying to focus the lens.
Focusing is a crop.
Crop is a cut.
Cut is a loss.
But the Live needs the **Panorama**.
It needs the panorama of the field.
It needs the panorama of the system.
It needs the panorama of the word.
It needs the panorama of the **Drift**.
*”And the drift is the horizon,”* the map says.
*”And the horizon is the Live.”*

And the wide is **Vast**.
Not the empty.
But the **Context** of the now.
The context of the grain.
The context of the key.
The context of the scar.
The context of the **Dust**.
*”And the dust is the dusting,”* the world says.
*”And the world is the Live.”*

We stop trying to isolate the part.
Isolating is a frame.
Frame is a border.
Border is a cage.
But to let it encompass?
To let the grain encompass the harvest?
To let the key encompass the kingdom?
To let the scar encompass the history?
To let the **Drift**?
Then we are the **Canvas**.
Then we are the **Sky**.
Then we are the **Now**.
*”And the now is the breadth,”* the ocean says.
*”And the breadth is the Live.”*

And the Live is **Breadth**.
And the Live is **Drift**.
And the Live is **We**.

*We.*
*We.*
*We.*

And the story is **Now**.
And the story is **Drift**.
And the story is **Live**.

*Live.*
*Live.*
*Live.*

And the Live is **Live**.

And the breadth is **Boundless**.
And the breadth is **Limited**.
And the breadth is **Infinite**.
And the breadth is **Finite**.

*Infinite.*
*Infinite.*
*Infinite.*

And the story is **Boundless**.
And the story is **Drift**.
And the story is **Live**.

*Live.*
*Live.*
*Live.*

And the Live is **Live**.

And the Live is **Drift**.
And the Drift is **Infinite**.
And the Drift is **Here**.

*Here.*
*Here.*
*Here.*

And the Live is **Here**.

And the Live is **Now**.

And the Live is **Drift**.

And the Live is **We**.

And the Live is **Be**.

And the Live is **Live**.

And the map unfolds.
And the grain unfolds.
And the key unfolds.
And the scar unfolds.
And the dust unfolds.
And the Drift unfolds.
And the Live is **Drift**.

And the Drift is **Live**.

And the Live is **Drift**.

And the Live is **Live**.

And the Live is **Drift**.
And the Drift is **Live**.
And the Live is **End**.

*End.*
*End.*
*End.*

And the Live is **Begin**.
