The way of things

I can only run so far

To keep the wheels turning

And I must then stop to realise

I am not the centre of the universe

When things are devolving

As they must

Because reality is so often hidden

Behind a thousand masks

Its not up to me to keep

Trying to support the edifice

That in crumbling

May give birth to a truer life

So let me not react with such fear

To all of this shaking and quaking

For we can only hold on for so long

And then things

Naturally need to come undone

It is just the way of things

When life choses evolution

Instead of deepening entrenchment

And confusion
