Times' Sting


Ah, but do not be so harsh on this so human quality
He so keenly feels time’s ignoble sting upon his body
Time may usurp desire; sing its closing bars at evensong
Yet eventuality does not beckon hither a reckless want
So we will waive the night and make of a day infinity
And time may wait for us to clap his epigrammatic song
