in our tight enclosures

internally observed
the external turns away

I am overwhelmed	
By the minutiae of everyday life!
Dawn comes, and I awake, but no!
I pull the covers over my head
And close my eyes tightly

We Live By Time
By John Herlihy

We live by time
And not the eternity that is its envelope.
