A Timely Transition
Bismillah...
We enter with urgency
Like the certainty of a calling
As we’re falling out of time
Seconds remind minutes that they exist together
While hours remind days that they won’t live forever
We evacuate with urgency
Like fear has become our currency
As we’re purchasing lies at the cost of our souls
Minutes remind seconds that they must aspire to be them
Seconds remind hours that they will always leave them.
The earth will swallow even our hollowness.
Nothing runs like time, yet immobile are most that follow it.

Reflection 1: Reasons
Bismillah,
Amidst all the anguish, the toil, the conscious dreaming, quests for truth, sweat of labor, delightfully bizarre ideas…there lies the reason. It is as simple and as complicated as a heartbeat.
