Great Regulars: A lyrical image is "suspended wasp motion"

as time itself continues to move forward like heartbeats and like the slow, floating wasp's flight. The ending thought, about the tension between immobility and action, resolves with the "& so on" of continuing creation as our galaxy continues to spread outward across the blue sky. This kind of poetry asks the reader to participate fully.
