Time’s Echo Answered

Yesterday’s mastery
becomes tomorrow’s sorrow—

future ruin is today’s repayment

for yesterday’s delay—

walls will fall where foolishness sinks

foundations to life’s root

& wisdom frames exit when further entrance

is denied to those who most wished

that what they saw was what they

were meant to see—no matter

who they were—or what they built—

or who they meant to be—
