Haiku - Time

HAIKU ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the light of day the darkness of night twenty-four hours a moment in time one blink... total darkness a bat does not care o summer sunshine fourteen hours... joy... heaven then you got found out one day... life for some invertebrate imagoes did you know... mayflies... inch worms' measuring time... pupating... emerging beauty revealed time in a void light... darkness... how would you know all conjecture... time.. conjecture astronomical distance do we need to know... a new planet... 'b' time... we have not got it not conjecture have a good time just how long is that... how long... should be a life time... time is running out for all life on planet earth... why are we warring... time spent jousting a waste of life... the moment take time... live for it philosophizing me... but a mere mortal man my muse guides my hand my thoughts are my own inspired by threats ignored... i beg... heed nature
