Relate, Reflect and Ruminate: Hourglass

Because sometimes, emotions don’t fit into bullet points and I have a flare for the dramatic.

For those feeling caught in repeating cycles.

Slow ticks forward 

The magnitude of the past growing 

Perpetual motion set forth 

Self-fulfilling and compounding 

History ignored, folly 

Another life repeated 

In service of the same lesson 

A failing grade for long tested material 

History forgotten, a tragedy 

Richness bestowed 

Vast treasures lost to the rising sea 

Every antique a curio of our condition 

History misremembered, a harm 

Narratives misconstrued 

Animosity constructed 

Sensemaking the warpath 

Those cut of different cloth 

Blind to the passing of the sand 

Long dead empires of the mind surprisingly uncovered 

Mere modern life to the commoner 

Cogs and wheels linked 

Havens of a future purgatory 

The architects indifferent to outcome 

Navigated to paradise
