What a wonderful and
mysterious word.
The essence of our being,
but why is it so short, with so many mistakes
and not enough time to fix them?
Not enough time for forgiveness
or trust.
But we have made it far in an unforgiving world
Amid the confusion
There is genuine collaboration
And explosive creation
Minds wrapping their way around
the unsolved mysteries of the world.
We will still achieve
Our eyes see straight ahead
Occasionally missing life in our rush.
