Time Span

A Poem by E.J. Waling

Time!
Divides.
Dictates.
Segments
one from
the next.
Isolates
one from
the other.
Epoch to
epoch.
Imprisoned
within,
impregnable.
No escape.
Twain shall
never meet.
Trapped.
No escape.
Live as
prescribe.
Era decides.
Trapped,
no liberation.
Each different.
Accident
of birth.
Accept.
Time
dictates
terms.
Epoch
to
epoch.
One from the
next.
Time
determines
what’s believed.
Time decides
how to
live.
Who to
love.
Time decrees.
Time dictates
when to die.
No choice.
Time decides!
