At a moments notice everything crashes

We flee from the light and return to the ashes

In life we die a million times to become better for tomorrow

When tomorrow comes we dream of yesterday

We imagine the infinite, and dwell on an instant

Diffident in the moment, bold in thought

We are caught between action and being inert.

A lifetime is ephemeral to the ages, do not dally, life is happening
