NOTE: Read it slowly for the full effect! It's not that long, so what have you got to lose?

Breathe. Think. See the future. Or is it the present? The past?

Think again.

Where you are now, are you really standing here or were you standing there?

It's difficult to tell, and even more to understand. This is a gift. This is a curse. See the present – or is it the past?

You don't know. You never know. You just live it and plan for yesterday for what might've been today.

You feel a headache, don't you? Understand the meaning. You know the present – you lived it before you changed.

Know it again.

Discover the difference between past and future – a thin line easily broken. Tread carefully – for you never know if the present is in the past or future.

Calm yourself. Remember that you exist, however vague that might be. You must remember – for if you forget, you lose yourself within the future. Or the past. In either case, the results are less than desirable.

Do you see the tree? There is a Pidgey on it. Or was there a Pidgey? Will there be a Pidgey on it? You must find out. This Pidgey will – or has already eaten the last fruit on the tree. Use the gift- the curse to see. Or don't use it. Close your eyes. Maybe close just one of them. It might help, but it might not.

The headache is painful isn't it? Or has it yet to exist?

All senses are lost – focus again. Orientate yourself. You know yourself to exist. Maybe not… Do you exist?

You must exist.

Prove it to yourself – take a step forward. Flap your wings and fly. Do you feel the breeze caressing the tips of stiff feathers? Do you- You must land. There is or will be a Dragonite in the sky. You cannot take the chance that it is in the past.

Have you eaten? You can't remember – does your curse - your gift tell you? It should. Find the difference between the eyes; learn to focus on one coherent thought. Have you done it? Have you eaten? No? Is the fruit still there? No? Do you see yourself eating soon? Or did you just see yourself having already eaten? Remember to find the difference!

Breathe.

Do you see it now? A supply of sweet pecha berries? You are hungry – will be hungry. You must go to it now – or have you already gone? Go find the sweet pecha berries. They are here. Will be here. Already here.

It is gone – it will be gone because you have found it. Eat. Refresh yourself and savor the taste of the succulent berries. Remember that the sight can be a gift or a curse, but know that the berries are a gift regardless of past, present, or future.

You will be hungry again. Plan ahead. You will die one day. Live ahead.

Breathe. Think. See infinity come together.

Think again.

A/N: Short, I know, but if it was any longer, I'd be just dragging it on endlessly. This was an experiment with 2nd person POV. Very confusing, but I meant it to be. Ever since I read the PokeDex entry on it, I couldn't help but wonder: if it sees the past in one eye and the future in the other, how does it see the present? I know this has been done before by a much better author, but I wanted to try it myself.

Review if you managed to sit through it all. It'd be interesting to see how many were able to read it. XD
