I’m fine with the fact that each second dies as soon as it’s born, birthing and killing me along with it. As the man-made measuring mechanism tells us that with each moment, there is a change, So I, too, metamorphose with each tick and tock. A death of self- a senescing- timely, and repetitive. The moulting of an identity that once existed. The world giving me a new opportunity to decompose, contribute to the carbon cycle, yes, again, turn me to CO2 release me into the soil and let a plant grow where I stood. Every day with endless opportunities to have my own renaissance.
