Wasted motions enroute to crypts
a world's devotion to time's eclipse
opened windows...we close so tight
open secrets...men find trite
Aging lives...void of sight
retirement's reward...all is right
death looms small...golf the aim
american dream...minds so trained
Eternal thoughts...hide so well
no love for God...no heaven nor hell
funeral reminders last one day
back to normal...back to play
Impulse rules in shallow hearts
new beginnings? too late to start!
security blanket...in bank account
jingling gold...what a sound!
Foolish man...don't you know
this very night requires your soul?
what legacy...can you give?
in heaven's world...you never lived!
No mercy from time...though time you seek
time turns to darkness...darkness bleak
Awaken from sleep...before time is no more
enter The Gate...of Christ, "The Door!"
Jron...today...while driving to work
