Finality is much debated
Is it a bad thing? Can we abate it?
~
We’re all scared of the end, at curtain call
Did we get what we wanted at all?
Time is finite, never ample
It's always a fight and a gamble
Life’s rife with strife for more time
To build something that remains sublime
~
You’re right, time is forever running out
Never allowing for much throughout
Always fast
Never surpassed
And we’re always left in doubt
~
Ah! But would you work hard if you knew
That life is infinite, with no end in view
Or would you procrastinate and laze
Knowing that tomorrow is no longer a haze
Its hard to say for sure or procure
A definite answer that’s complete and pure
But do the best you can in the here and now
And don’t worry about the end for now.

Human Labyrinth
Conflicts and drama in relationships are sadly too common. Although we interact with people every day and have boundless experiences this with them, they are the most difficult mazes in the world to navigate. I'm finding this maze quite insurmountable.

Enroute
The stars and planets all whipped by as Deirdre's crystalline craft sped past them. Her people, the Vlondans, had discovered that the mineral Dianthium which grew so readily on their home world not only kept their hair pink but also was a perfect material for engineering spacecraft from.
