An Eternity Spent Dreaming
The child crawls, then stumbles , then walks
The priest equivocates further
The parents pay the rent
And an eternity passes by
Every feels guilty
No one knows why
Love is outmoded
Teachers teach
Lawyers lie
Judges play God
Death weaves on it’s loom
Children act the fool
The simply old are christened Elders
The work gets done
And an eternity has passed
Has the train left the station,
Yet?
