Trust the steady animation of time
to flip the intricate page
before you've seen the entire picture.

Engage the regimental timepiece
and attempt to distract his cadence,
but it is you, not he, who will slowly mature.

Respect the dilution of yesterday
dropped into the single-colored eternity;
a deep and sterile culture.

Rely on the methodic obliteration
of the present to clear a path
for the imperial flow of future.

Ponder the coronation of tomorrow
after the swift yet bloody regicide
by such an unchallenged usurper.

Watch forever edify a grandiose memorial
of all that has now will be, only to strike
without care, crumbling the ancient structure.

Know the child is temporary,
so converse with her now,
for time will soon contort her character.
