FOOL'S CHARADE

in the end it's just a memory, a clicking of the
lens
our lives pass fast as mercury
racing towards the end

and wisdom is a fools charade
of lessons learned too late
leaving broken shadows
on the corners of the gate

how many time we've said the words
that rise up from two minds
there's no escaping what we know
no breaking of these binds

like hidden strings of puppeteers
a Punch and Judy show
whe’re hiding behind curtains
never letting go

the days roll on fall into years,
but time seems standing still

we mark our scars so intricate
with illusions of free will
