Man
Man is a star in the twilight
That shall shine for such a time
That the sun in its dawn's light
May shed light upon its night.

The Sun of Man, By Brian37
Men are the stars
Of history
Many seen
Most unoticed
All are born
All will die
Mundane abundence
In uncaring vastness
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

History is the great void of Apathy
For in time the great and the small
Are discarded all the same
And left where none may call.
Fame loses its memory
As youth fades with desire
Those who cling to a name
Forget for what to aspire
There are no stars in the night
They are but boasting candle flames
That flicker for attention
Only to die from self spending games
