A New Poem Draft

On Time as the Consistent Union of Contraries

Through time
The droughten sky with rain can swell

Through time
Who does things badly does them well

Through time
The sinner is righteous saint

Through time
The stalwarts fail and faint

Through time
The risky is stable and safe

Through time
The soothing catches and chafes

Through time
The living are dead in earth

Through time
The worthless is priceless worth

Through time
The silent all have their say

Through time
Tomorrow is yesterday

Through time
The world, grown old and frail,
Is newly born, and strong and hale.
