the eyes lament, the joy of the ear

from sense nonsense.
from nonsense sense.

23

the eye of providence in glory watches
over all the days of our lives

one

does the eye have its fill of seeing?

men dead at least 2000 years don't know

solomon likely didn't write those words

but

change, age, decay

we don't get older

before but now

before I was that but now I am this

before I was hungry but now I am full

before my eyes had not seen enough but now they have seen enough

before my ears had not heard enough

before my tongue had not tasted enough

what?

there is no plot twist? no new ending I need to wait for?

sigh

wealth
power
fame
even wisdom

it is too much for me

I prefer to be still

and remain at the centre

ha! don't believe it

breathe and believe it

put the hurry down
put the fear down
put the resentment down
put the regret down

and be

but

one
