LIFE - by David Kimel

LIFE by David Kimel Life is a flight of stairs Spinning around in circle, Evolving, year after year, In spiral to other level, And a different stage, Like a Babylonian tower Rising to an ever-foggy top. On this spiral, My weak feet are climbing Steadily, tiredly, On the growing path, Pulling an already heavy, expandable, Load of memories, regrets And irremovable mistakes. Ahead, steamy clouds become Closer and inscrutable. Behind, insignificant creatures Swarm like ants, fast reeling On a Lilliputian stage I had the lead part.
