Saving Souls

Saving Souls

тАЬWhen it is time to die, let us not discover that we never lived.тАЭ
тАХ Henry David Thoreau

We all want to be saved
by someone, anyone,
God, Seer, Astronaut, Alien;

who knows future
who knows time

and who knows more than
us.

But we all want to saved

from this catastrophic existence,
from this vicious cycle of work and
responsibility,
and sometimes,
even from ourselves.

We all want to be saved.
We all want to be safe.

But go where? And do what?

Today or tomorrow this will end too.
And watching the ending unfold is
the beginning of saving ourselves.
