ALL IS DUST 3-4-2006
Frailty informs our ceaseless sighs
as we drift
through numbered daylights
our strength
at last fruitless
all kindness beheld
consumed.
Buy arrogance
damn snake.
Intended at creation
to live as a fish
Temporal vanity robbed him
the ability to swim.
Restricted to land
prepared always to strike
groomed by desire
to ravish
and suppress
Felled by fear
incapeable of love
still encoraged
by his reflection mirrored
What has he gained?
dust
dust
all is dust
Lashes of eyes
once lovingly
curled around
moonbeams dripped
in stardust
Possibility and purpose
now dwindle
life passes
Our former zeal
becomes fertilizer
now soiled
The legacy forsaken
proposes
a future
from which
worms
shall spring link
