There
is nothing but
eternity
both in the past and in the future.
While undergoing
various modifications whether natural or artificial
the basic substance remains unchanged and is permanent

while
the forms change and are temporal
Living spirit’s
can not be created or can not be
destroyed

Childhood, youth, and old age are like the seasons ordained
so to the life
of a living being
The soul
of a living being is permanent

Clay
is molded by a potter into various shapes
Gold
is crafted by a goldsmith into various ornaments  These changes
are artificial
modifications of the nonliving
what then of the
Spirit
the reflection of man’s
golden time that still lays ahead?

if it is going to be it is up to me i choose my destiny

Time is but a notion easily broken in my mind
I have never lived in present
I have never seen the future
I have only seen my past
A life of constant past defined in only memories
Now look at me what am I now

time is an illusion, havent you figured that out yet

I am the two-toed wanderer
