emergence

what does a word mean?
a word means what is in your mind
a word means what has been said by mouths in time
a word comes first---what it means come later

later means first one thing than an other thing
the other thing is later

so, first sounds, then what they mean
first music---and dance---then emergence

emergence is the appearance of some thing new
not there before but made of what is already there

appearance is some thing seen or thought or felt

before means first one thing then an other thing
the first thing is before

already means you can use it
not some thing from no thing
rather, some thing from some thing
---emergence

which still leaves the mystery
of something from nothing
---of the first thing

something is there
nothing is not there
mystery is a bridge

search back---each thing dissolves
(push forward---new things appear)

dissolve means to disappear
disappear means to become nothing
become is to emerge

disappear is becoming backwards

(& backwards is another tale...)
