Time is a Murderer,
a cutthroat assassin
that ruthlessly slits the throats
of the people
and places
and things
you love.
It is an endless parade
of marching seconds,
a patient and silent
Teacher
with no agenda or will,
who nevertheless.
brings you growth, wisdom,
and intelligence.
Yet while Time grants gifts,
so it takes them away,
dulling your senses
and your mind—
as it must,
T’il the body
crumbles to ash
and returns
back to
Dust.
