time lives at the bottom of our thoughts
when we are young gradually moving
up and taking a more prominent position
as we age... we learn as we get older
that time is our enemy not our friend...
time winds its way through the universe
as it has done for millennia and only
humans have a desire to measure its
passing... knowing that we can neither
stop it or slow it down, leaving us no
choice but to embrace it and accept
the inevitability of its ending... at
least with the end of our lives as they
are currently being measured... we
offer little resistance to its passing
other than mental frustration and
trying to keep ourselves looking as
young as we can for as long as we
can, hoping the end comes sooner
than later in our sleep... we attempt
to measure its passing through our
accomplishments knowing that as
it passes no one will remember us.
