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.

We find ourselves in different versions of consensus-realities over time as we progress in our experiencing ... true. I believe we are "trapped" only by our slow progress in evolving past the inability to recognize and accept our oneness. We continue on this cycle of experiencing until we do ... then can graduate to the next level of being.
Love your insightful poem, JG!
Thank you Louis, for reading my work and your kind words.
I like your way of looking at this. You're right, there's so much more than meets the eye!
Granted, we are trapped within our own time physically. But what I find so appealing, is learning of other times and places. We are now in the age of technology and conveniences. I can't imaging how things would be 1000 years from now, and that's if we make it that far without destroying ourselves first. Excellent write Collin. ; )
Hi AP,
Thank you for reading my work and your insights.
JG
The pleasure was mine JG. ; )
Simply put and thought-provoking. it's crazy how much things have developed over the years and what we take for granted now were not even in existence a few years back! Really enjoyed this piece 🙂
