the thing from beyond space

Hold up. All things 
are from beyond space if
they show up. Space 

intervened for a pace or apace,
then ceased being so interposed.

It came from beyond space.

He 
came,
she came, you 
and I come, to each 
other at least  - they? They 
are always coming, or making
as if to loom, to threaten so. So? 

I mean, a thing 
from beyond time 
at least!

That would be something
we've never seen yet! 
Yet, one
suspects if 
and by the
time it got here, 
it wouldn't be any
such thing at all.

We'd find 
we only just
discovered it 
in time.

Just in time. Only
in. Not from without, it
came. It came not from 

beyond! But within, between 
moments - out it pops! AH! 

AH, HA! TA-DA! IT! Or 
oh, it's you. 

Quit jumping out at people
like that, like some unforeseen 
surprise! What are you, a 

a, 

ah, 

'TsYOU! Oh.

My word. You are some kind

Aren't you? Why don't you 
tell me then, what? 

You can tell me, I promise 
to believe right away and 
keep a secret for all time, 

any place you care to check. 

Trust me, you surprising
people-thing you! 

I will
so I swear never
surprise you with

the betrayal 

you expect. How!
Could I? 
How could anyone do 
such a thing  to you. 

or anyone really
