I hear tomorrow roaring down at me
Relentless fire
Everything you love will one day be gone
But
So will all you hate
And that’s fine
It’s better
Better than better
So death or just temporary silent sleep
Before some complex chain of circumstance, cause and condition
Throws another pattern up on the beach?
Roaring down
Like wind that shakes the foundations
Wait long enough
It will be gone
So did you bend in the wind
Or did you hold hard
Let those foundations crack?
And that’s fine
It’s better
Better than better
Each life a brick in an infinite wall
The one who knows says
This is the way each relates to the other
And this body
This now
Becomes dust
Something persists,
Can be seen by subtle eye
But really
Nothing lasts
Everything changes
All plaited and pulling
Infinite rope, the strands
The causes and conditions
Just go back, and maybe loop
So there is no beginning
And that’s fine
It’s better
Better than better
