(i hope that i do not get inot trouble for cross-posting this, but it seemed to fit in both places...if I have done wrong, I apologize)

Time swallows with a shallow moan,
first flesh, then dust and bone
devouring all humanity
held upon the loving hands of beauty
ever so slow
time destroys with selfish swallow.


"There is an alter ego which
dwells in every soul..."
a-alibaster

"I am as I am, nothing more, nothing less,
I am tears of pain, tears of Death.

Very powerful words.
Take care.

You're right ali, time swallows unless you want it to, then it sidesteps, creeps, and sidles and you're stuck in it.  
Be well

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-
