∴

there are some people
that you love
like the wonders of the world.

they are awesome to behold;
breath-taking
and life-giving,
waking you with a shock,
back into yourself,
and lulling you sweetly
into fantastic sleeps,
wherein you dream again,

at last.

 

but like Niagra Falls,
and the Grand Canyon,
and the Pyramids,
and the great,
undiscovered,
abyss of the sea,
they are treacherous
and belonging to their era,
and are best understood
through the lens
of time.

∴
