walking music

CuldeSac
living life is a thing of perpetual finality
born with five inputs to consume the dying
each moment to witness nothing to hold on to
given the biological dependencies satisfied
parameters of gravity oxygen and sustenance
conclude to another human being's meaning

on earth every emotion has its time and place
it is easy to go with the flow just to be happy
you can do it until you perish and never pause
but life would be a dream like that of an animal
stopping to investigate would make it worth it
lucid about knowledge as the sorrow seeps in

awareness of the process crosses man's psyche
soon enough making acquaintance with anguish
to know everything has a beginning and an end
thought itself demands each moment to pass
the paradox is that understanding requires it
as he is the walking music that realizes the song
