Today is ours, but destiny, will melt us into history.
A billion bubbles you and I; unnoticed and preoccupied.
Each generation to a man, proclaiming they were greater than.

So sad but reality.
This was very brief but full of wisdom and wordy enough to get the point across and came out measured just right in my mind.
I did run the intro through my mind several times and I found that rather intriguing. I can read it many times and get something different from it each time.... Hmmmmmm, very interesting indeed. |

Nice write Jaye :)
I have to say, the imagining of the transition from future to present to history occurring in such a //fluid// format is quite amusing ;)
The line "Today is ours, but destiny, will melt us into history" is well-contending for a favorite, but the final line shows the hubris of a populist-leaning society. Such is our blessing or curse, depending how you look at it. confidence vs naiveté lol |
