The Meaning Between Now and Then
 
 

I see a lot to live about
Up to and down too before life gives out
Anyway someday maybe soon

So I might as well hang on to see what
Comes about from my living out
Of what the universe is giving out

Taking this opportunity
For better or worse but better than not
To make the most of what I got

Making the most of the sun and the moon
And the faraway stars I see
The about to be is not without me

The question is answered within
Because the answer was always to be
Growing to know from having been

To be timely albeit timelessly
The meaning between now and then

Cute baby. My brother had a portrait with a similar pose. Your life appears to have been lived well and with thought. If we have acted with purpose and care for others, then we can feel assured we have lived well.

You were a cute little boy. What happened? Just kidding… ;-)

It does appear that we return to the kind of helplessness and acceptance that we had during our first year of life before we die. Unless it comes early without any warning.

Next Arrivals by Robin Ouzman Hislop

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
