This Moment

Words. We're still using words- in the twenty first century! I think we should be applauded for our humility, our respect for the past, that thread of time atop whose unfolding coil...and all the rest of it. Perhaps it's only for the sake of form, appearances, but still, it's worthy of mention all the same.
But this moment. I want to talk about 'this moment.' But can you really talk about this moment in any satisfactory manner? Can it be attacked just like that, or does it have to be circumnavigated, almost ignored even? One talks about anything but this moment, and then, as if from nowhere, one strikes! But even then you come up with nothing.
