We often think of time as our enemy. Perhaps it’s time to consider other options.
Time As Oracle
by Odin Roark
It sometimes jumps ahead
This thing called time
Leading our hearts
Massaging our minds
Forever the optimist
How little we know her
Her memory often hides
Shadows suit one’s receding light
Its three dimensional essence
Having succumbed to wisdom’s patience
Finally accepting what’s past is past
Time’s present insistence
Offers gentle ushering
Often guarding us with
Options to adhere
Even as the interim
We may not be ready for...
In the end
We may have made a friend
That part of existence
That knows no barrier
No end game
Forever ready
To accompany us
Into the next evolution
The next arc
Fulcrum’s destiny
Pivot’s next juncture
Time waits for no one?
Perhaps we’re wrong
Might duration’s chronology
Be numberless?
Timeless?
