What Never Ends Can’t End Well

Heraclitus earned his spot
Among the top quotations.
The only constant is change.

You will never end the world,
Nor will all your enemies.
Together, you just make a mess.

Neither eternal nor frail,
The Earth grinds its rocks like teeth,
Its teeth like lives, lives like gears,

Gears like the rollers of waves
That constantly crash against
Obdurate rocks, like beliefs.
