John Prophet

Time Prisoner

We

are born

when we are

born.
We

look around

and see what

we see.
We

then get

on with it.
We

deal

with what

we have.
This was

true

for those

born

one thousand

years ago.
It is true

today.
It will be

true

for those born

one thousand years

from now.
The time

we\'re born

into is

unique,

we behave

as those in our
time

behave,

we relate

to what

our time offers.
We\'d behave

differently

in different times.
We

are trapped

in and are

prisoners

of time.
