Pal!
Keep an eye on time
It is sleek, and slithers so swift
before you notice the ages gone by.
It warps the space of your body
From delectable to detestable
Makes man out of dust and vice versa.
It’s an intoxication when you have its favors
and an enigma when it bids you bye.
Fancied by saints and scientists alike
It rolls tantalizingly close
but keeps epochally aloof from comprehension.
Perhaps, you and I are particles of time
that permit time to propagate
from big bang to big crunch. |
