To What Degree: Time!

 

With quintessential eulogy

     each of us says goodbye to yesterday,

and greets tomorrow

     with some degree of the unknown.

We all happen to approach time

     with insecure pressure.

Like a xenophobe,

     we guard each night with opaque vex,

as once again the asperity of midnight

     leaves another scar.

As dawn approaches,

     the red force of the burning sun

begins to bleed across

     the early cloud covered sky.

Once again,

     the law of the universe shall kill the whim

of justice,

     and time shall treat us with today,

until another zone

     of darkness descends.
