INFINITY by MABEL MUNNS CHARLES

First Line: INFINITY SPREADS OUT BEHIND
Last Line: IS ALL THAT I CAN KNOW.

Infinity spreads out behind
And stretches out before.
My mind explores each endless track,
A step ahead, and two steps back,
Then I can think no more.
The clock repeats its solemn news
Declared an hour ago.
This small piece of infinity
Is all that I can know.
