How, can I make you understand
that inside me
and in my gaze
Is everything that we cannot see
and everything
that pulls
Us closer to the end of this life.
~
I am an older man
Inside
Than perhaps my circumstances desire of me
~
The hustle, bustle and sheen
are seen through for me
already
And my dilemma is in knowing whether it is my
duty
to engage
Fully
with this world around me
