Time's Not Free
Freedom's voice
is seldom heard
amidst contentious crowds
and lonesome herds
For time's not free
and carries on
with not a thought
for you or me
Click your device
you can see
everything's there
for you for a fee
Run the race
Pace it fast
Build wide barns
Raise sturdy supports
to store your massed wares
take those prospective risks
till time whisks it
all away
as the gate swings wide
to secure your soul's fate
when time unfolds
your life's story
at the holy threshold
Are you free?
