here today
gone tomorrow
here for a fleeting moment
gone in a flash
like a bubbling fountain
nothing just is
the bus won't stop and let ya get off
the train never comes to a standstill
the planet revolves
the moon waxes and wanes
the tides ebb and flow
thoughts bubble up, coalesce and disperse
dust falls
organisms decay
an endless cycle
of birth
reproduction
death
the soul
the spirit
the flesh
the demands change
the goalposts move
the bar is raised
the parameters alter
we crave security
permanence
immortality
we get insecurity
impermanence
mortality
we desire what we cannot have
we want to be who we cannot be
