Time and Existence

curiosity free verse elementary wonder

Forever as homework in seconds.

Eternity is too large to carry. Existence fits in seconds — this one, maybe the next, none promised.

Immortality is a daydream. Mortality is the clock on the classroom wall.

Legacy is not poster language. Accurate is memory you bother to make before the bell rings.

The second hand still counts whether you are ready.
