Kit Kelen #335 - our time passing


335
our time passing

there is a time for us
not so hard to imagine

the golden age is what just was

under much the same
won't it be?

some days it feels
like a much bigger planet

we ourselves
only just mulching down

still a long time
till we're coal
some fresh fool
might burn

it's only
now and then
you see

the past
is like a well
that's deeper
the longer
the rope
you let down

  1. 'a long time

    Wow! I love this idea, and with the image, puts us all into perspective.

  2. Have you been reading George Monbiot, Kit? Very powerful. I particularly liked "we ourselves/only just mulching down”
