Live, live against the dying of this light

Is our deepest fear we may never
become who we dreamed
we’d be?
Could this be
a more fundamental fear
than fear of death?
Live, live
against the dying of this light–
in the angry youth
the tired politician
the goal-centered
in yourself
in your friends.
Live, live
bring alive
the dreams
of whom we still can be.

:- Doug.
