This is my new poem

Post by Marisha »

each passing day
takes me one step closer
to next week
but
further away from last week
this teaches me
nothing

How about if it teaches you something about the march of time?

[Though I like your somewhat cynical ending better.]

I like this a lot, Marisha. It's vey Zen. I don't know if that's what you were intending, but that's how I read it.

Time is the only constant...everything else is meaningless. That's what I took from this.

Thanks for sharing!

And you're likely right on that, Pinata 8) ... especially with "nothing" getting such emphasis.
