Consciousness:
"And consciousness begins
As an awareness of otherness
Which otherness awareness
Requires time to become aware of.
And all the statements by consciousness
Are in the comparative terms
Of prior observations of consciousness
-- 'It's warmer, it's bigger, it's quicker--'
Minimalconsciousnes evokes time
As a nonsimultaneous sequence of experiences.
Consciousness begins at minimum
As a second experience.
This is why consciousness
Identified the basic increment of time
As being a second.
Not until the second experience
Did time, consciousness--
Which is human life--
Begin.
