Wisdom in six words

"God has cared for these trees,

saved them from drought, disease, avalanches,

and a thousand tempests and floods.

But cant save them from fools."

The nexus was a central station.

People arrived as if heaven sent.

They came in droves to rent.

Upon their arrival they became civilized.

Trains came to then parted there.

Taking people back to their home.

Communications changed and people began again.

New cost for rent and checks written.

Their flow and traffic barely noted.

Hardly any introspection caused a pause.

The people kept on moving through.

A nexus many have never known.

Will barely be noticed by anyone.

They are moving all the time.

A machine we are now mindless.

Growing closer to the collective conscious.

Unconscious whiffs of life in that.

We drift through a new nexus.

Archaeologists we are seeking the past.

While living another life through Nexusmods.

Beginning again after another surprising end.

While time waits for no one.

We pace ourself to become someone.

Body gets full grown still unknown.

After all time tells us nothing.

Time keeps ticking not about us.

Maturity we awakened and are grownups.

We failed to measure the time.

Time again rules we start over.

Remember to time it next time!  🥳

The following five quotes are unrelated.

  • Wisdom is the science of happiness.
  • Epithets are the arguments of malice.
  • Every science has been an outcast.
  • Death is liberty, absolute and eternal.
  • Religion makes enemies instead of friends.

~Robert G. Ingersoll

Pictures can convey so many things.

Each person interprets a unique perspective.

With an increased population since coining

And so many variations of interpretation,

It begs to ask the question.

Is one thousand words really enough?

That cliche really needs some updating.

Perhaps give it an inflation rate,

Similar to the almighty American dollar.

Now, pictures are worth much more.

But no worries, rich or poor.

All who view can still afford.

Because everyone is rich in uniqueness.
