Out of Time

Years slip by
   and the world continues to turn
   changing and progressing
   or regressing.
Retrograde evolving
   skipping thru history lessons
   to venture forth
   bold and fool hearty.
Looking backward
   visionaries see'
   what happened but was never
   meant to be.
Prophets, sages and psychics
   sense the madness
   as it dances
   brazen on the horizon.
Peace and war
   are now merely words
   to allow love and hate
   to rise and fall.
Separation of rich and poor
   stretch wide the gaps
   of haves and have nots
   to forever be unsatisfied.
History rewinds
   pushes play and repeats
   until one day
   we are all
out of time.
