“ Held Instant ” ~ on life’s clock ~

Held be instant

On life’s clock,

Prods the infant

Time finds stalk,

Till soul senescent

Begs for distance,

That lessens load

Of aging baggage,

One need dispose

To bury ravage,

Excesses imposed

Of borne instants,

Living composed!

 

“ Improbity ” ~ suffers time ~

Ones’ will imposed

To gain advantage,

Ought be exposed

As veiled improbity,

That wants manage

Endured baggage

Of callous probability,

Implying suffers time

Divest of honesty mind!
