when it can be
most often the case-
it never will.

its not too early
its never too late-
well it is just late.

one never walks alone
one is never too far away-
distance is perception.

just a question
that wants no answer-
now what?

wearing a mask
standing in disguise-
is most revealing.

cannot escape fate
never from certainty-
not likely from memory.
