ETERNITY

Folder: 
JOURNAL#16

a shard of ambiguity

is worth the pulp of a thousand

unfailing measures

the mountain sometimes even moves

the man

as 'never' just like 'before'

offers no real nor reliable opportunity

tender emotion confides so very little in

nature's dominant logic

at the highest level of true spirit

man kneels to learn his place

woven so sweetly among his sold on sin

for fathers

flies the dangerously proud flat of the

too common heritage

which is quite befitting since we are after

all unworthy inheritors

given a most superior post

one that we can only pray we are enduring

enough to fulfill

still life gallops further on ahead

farther than we could ever realize and is

a challenge yet to be detoured

by the sigh of all unstoppable time

eternity.................................

(June 6, 1997)
