Good evening.
This is –
our last meal together
– forever.
Secluding the belly – nourishing bliss.
Each arrival makes them smile
As a tune of the departure
That leaps the eon and tricks the mile.
Eternity is not <<forever>>,
eternity is <<out of time>>.
This distance is a song –
to awe, to dance, to chime.
Ding dong
