this will never be
just like the inappropriate
use of words of infinite natures
from the mounts of finite
and mortal beings
you say forever
but you know
you mean years
if that much at all
you say what we've done
is bigger than us
but once we're dust
they'll be at best a few foot notes
all these memories
all these desires
all these steps
the product of cells
already heading out the door
this is what drives us mad
this is what drives us religious
this is what drives us
to try
to believe
or create
or to mow over the world
hoping
to leave
leave a mark
a scar
big enough to be
forever
