Triumph
|
|
|
|
-Sudden,
|
|
(like Lightning)
|
|
A point is passed
|
|
When promise turns to
|
|
Fulfillment;
|
|
When rise turns to
|
|
Fall;
|
|
When Struggle turns to
|
|
Victory;
|
|
When Life turns to
|
|
Death.
|
|
|
|
The moment passes quickly,
|
|
But the Sensation -
|
|
Lingers, as
|
|
A lizard Sunning itself
|
|
For the day -
|
|
Compressed into a single Instant.
|
|
A momentary interval of freefall
|
|
Stretched off...
|
|
Into Infinity.
|
|
|
|
-With this infinitesmal slice of Eternity,
|
|
Unbound joy is ours for the taking.
|
|
Feeling as a Caesar -
|
|
A million times a day without reflecting upon it,
|
|
We stumble forward and count
|
|
All as Failures,
|
|
Unless
|
|
We are Told otherwise.
