Lasting

Time is tricky with changing moods,
Space is shaky with bad and good.


Now nothing lasts through change and age,
Time moves so fast from page to page.


Be prompt with time as space finds you,
Writes in deep rhyme is what you do.


Wise up dear fool as sage inks lines,
Verse feels thought drool lovely and fine.


Seize zest for fest and word your best
Make echoes jest to hurl the rest.


Pattern your churn with sonic boom,
Action can burn a sexy bloom.


Reason shocks wIt as fancy strange,
Logic can fit odd waves of change.


Insight now peeps to hustle space,
Delight strings deep a curious face.


Time plunders well to crumble dust,
Soul bids heart dwell on simple trust.


Now dare outlast the certain feast,
Soon the vain past dies like a beast.


Trick or treat shows a pagan ploy,
You seem to know how wonder toys.
