Let me not show you the dangers of time
What wrinkles prove mercilessness of age
For immortality was made a crime
And earth was made to hold the sad act's stage
Let me not show you the dangers of Death
For He has come to personify verse
He feeds on every dying man's last breath
His life was plagued with a dark and bright curse
But let me show you the wonders of time
For some can accomplish three lives in one
Miraculous seems the ability
The trick is to capture the essence of prime
Or you'll end up living the life of none
Maddening seems this reality
