Life's Time


time is a barrier we all must face,

we cannot escape the barrier,

pass the barrier,

or remove the barrier,

we can only face the barrier

as our last official act

of being alive...   that is to say,

in the sense that we understand

life in the way that we do...

that it must end;  and, when it ends,

in the manner in which we 

understand that it will end, we

evolve into something else...

something that is not the life

that we knew, nor is it the death

that we just experienced...

it is something far more profound,

something of which we do not

understand or comprehend...

that is to say that time ceases

to exist for us, if time was even

with us in the first place...

we age and develop and grow

and claim that is an example of time,

but is it time or just our evolution

that has no basis in time...

life just is until it is not...

and has no relationship with time

that does not continue when we die.
