"Carpe Diem"

Humans nurture a fear

Of Uncertainty

Its inevitability,

And vagueness in life.

Unpredictable, they say
And think it unbearable.

But Mortals can do nothing

Other than waiting...

Who knows, what lies ahead?

Pearls of joy may leave the thread

Replace it with stones

Of mischance.

Evanescence of life

Is the only way to permanence

An immunity from uncertainty

So rule till you have your reign.

Remember we are mortals

To be picked from our portals

To a place of Certainty

The ultimate "desert of Eternity..."
