Another chance to start anew,
another bookmark
to remember a moment in time,
another clean page
to taunt the scale of my ambition.
Another place to meet and share,
another forum
to lubricate the madness in mind,
another crossroads
to look across the path curious.
Among the gathering,
a water hole of lights and sound,
every moment whirling in color,
every second filled to the brim
with a drink of eternity.
Too confused to grasp,
resigned to let the rushing go by
like a boulder splitting the river,
like a tree stolidly cleaving
the stampede of existence.
Time refuses to wait.
It ignores whims, defies reason,
denies the plea to relax the pace.
Time is a madman
at the wheel of a circus ship.
Fools and sages passengers together, all swept along
by the forces gathering black hole whirlpools
to stir the brine and brew.
The waves of ritual clash
a struggle against
the winds of change.
