"All that I am, all that I see, is only a part of all that can be." Starman
Time and space-space and time, All of those realities intertwined, Climbing a mountain day-by-day, Oh, it’s the price we all must pay. Love, love, love, Fits like a glove, Mind over matter, Why did it matter? Energy and matter play, Entropic, we melt away, Our math-cosmic meth, It all adds up to death. There is a zero-sum game, Where the answers offend, Clock set to spin-and-spin, Beginning where it all ends.

I just saw that poem about me in the list above and had to laugh. Will have to read it again…

This poem shows us how minuscule we are in our self-important lives. We are here and gone in the flick of a gnats eyelash in astronomical time. Still, from birth we struggle like you point out, reaching for love and accomplishment before the Grim Reaper comes along again to replenish the stuff of the universe.

Cool and metaphysical.

I like this. You twisted and turned and rocked away at life, love and . . . oops! . . . death in a very interesting way. Good seeing you again. It has been a while.
