Man

Man is a star in the twilight
That shall shine for such a time
That the sun in its dawn's light
May shed light upon its night.

The Sun of Man, By

The Sun of Man, By Brian37

 

Men are the stars

Of history

Many seen

Most unoticed

 

All are born

All will die

Mundane abundence

In uncaring vastness

 

 

"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

History is the great void of

History is the great void of Apathy

For in time the great and the small

Are discarded all the same

And left where none may call.

 

Fame loses its memory

As youth fades with desire

Those who cling to a name

Forget for what to aspire

 

There are no stars in the night

They are but boasting candle flames

That flicker for attention

Only to die from self spending games
