Reaching all over,
wrapping arms around the throat—
time overtakes life.

Reaching all over,
wrapping arms around the throat—
time overtakes life.

A twist in the path,
leads the way, out of the way,
to serenity.

Slashing through dark clouds,
as an alien spaceship,
emblazons earth, sun.

Every heave matters;
no chariots to heaven—
backpacker pathway.

Challenging the skies,
poking at pillows of puff—
human ambitions.
