What life has ever lived forever?

title--quote, unquote from: Anonymous., Motology--a way of life (Karachi: Diocesan Press, 1950), 287

...it happens…Death prevails…and he keeps reminding us of our helplessness. There is absolutely nothing we can do about him…to enmesh him or delay him—nothing at all! And I’m certain I’m sounding like a fool repeating all this…but it’s true and he repeats it himself…

He sees nothing
No children no age
None of your power
No wealth no race

He doesn’t knock
Or ring the bell
His steps just roar
Bringing tears that ripple and rebel

And they rise up as waves of pain
Swelling in with strong scorn and disdain
But such recklessly lethal is his tread
That no life created has ever withstood
The period he puts on its story for good

So it is to be said yet again that
No living soul shall enmesh Death
For he proves all life helpless
And all souls live to die
For life is nothing but a cursed wish…

p.s. base 8's currently on his xmas-leave :-"
p.p.s. please try not to read between the lines...wrote it all in a hurry without really thinking...
any false implications were completely unintentional
...so I come see this place after three months and this is what has changed…I know, I know it's not that long of a time but to see a change like this it’s…it’s so weird!:… A puddle in the middle of the desert?!!?! What you’re seeing right now is a mirrraccclllee!!! it barely EVER rained all those 15 years here in saudi and people here would LITERALLY pray and beg for rain…like in EVERY prayer…five times a day!—and even after all that it would just drizzle for a few minutes and all the streets would go empty—as if everybody went blank! That too I guess was strange :S but what’s stranger is that we come back home…and on our way back home—it’s raining cows! now all of a sudden its like God just found all those dhl’s in a pile somewhere :S and its almost like…how you suddenly plan to check your inbox and you have all these e-mails and you go on this rapid-fire-replying-spree…:S One thing that hasn’t changed though and I guess wont ever change regardless of time…are the PEOPLE here! Same old stories…crazy cute mad saudi kids playing soccer in the streets…little four-year-olds goal-keeping and the goal being a car’s trunk—*sighs* THAT can never change :)

now as a side-note; in relation to our philosophy (for those who like things stated): as the theory of irony in motology states, irony itself can be ironically ironic.
