Cherish the moment,
We’re close to the end.
Our only opponent?
Is time underspent.
Invoke intention.
Distraction is death.
Or live in atonement —
Remorseful regret.
To savour is golden,
We halt for a breath.
Attention elopes when
Control doth reset.
We go through motions;
A zombie’s will bent.
Finding some focus,
Is where to invest.
Cherish the moment,
We’re close to the end.
When will we know it?
Only when we’re there.
