Time

Time is at a premium.
There is no back storage.
We have to squeeze it all in.
There is no second act in life.

Time is everything we can know.
But we don't know it at all.
Time puts us through our paces.
Time ignores suffering,
No matter the races.

Time is a selfish brute.
Time takes all our loot.
Time is unforgiving.
Time just keeps on living.

We are at the mercy of Time.
Deep down we are all sublime.
But Time don't pay no mind.
Time just chucks and jives.
