Having a Say in Things

Everything
changes
with time.

The color
of the
rose the
tribute due
Caesar a
mother’s love.

Then again,
nothing changes.

It’s because
we think
in sweeping
generalizations
that we
think things
change.

We think
things change
because we
don’t want
them to
change &
nothing ever
turns out
like we
want it to.

Don’t panic.

Don’t swallow
the peach
pit of
contradiction.

Don’t suck
up your
confusion like
fresh-spun
cotton-candy.

Think of
the smallest
unit of
conceivable time.

Think of
the smallest
unit of
inconceivable time.

Think of
a unit
of time
smaller still.

If you’ve
been successful
you’ve arrived
at eternity
where time
does
not exist.

Your problem
is you
think you
have a
say in
the matter.
