Forever
What's forever but never
Any urgency
Nor importance
Or any reason to rejoice
If we're always making noise
What's forever, never
Yours, mine
As we're everywhere in time
Forever, never
Blind
Knowing all we've left behind
Knowing everyone is fine
Just fine
As every breaking point unwinds
And the rolling never stops
Sisyphus
Unspotted at the top
Never hanging up the mop
Nor setting down the ball
That'll bounce and bounce
In a dizzying account
Of the stretching of the hall
The ripping of space
In it's expansion within
Its surely limited brace
Forever, never
Lie
For a question so unkind
To beg the breaking of a mind
That cannot barely grasp
The concept
Of forever
Unless we're in it
All of us, together
