Slowly, oh slowly we move.
Forward? No.
Intellect moves backward.
Slipping into nothing.
We whisper to distract
from the sound of screaming souls
as the minds degenerate
and the intelligence gathered by
our past
diminishes.
We touch to stave off
the coming feeling of loneliness
that is inevitable.
Time moves forward
but we move back.
How long will it have to take
before humanity is forever gone?
One millennium is but a second
gone too quickly for us to fix.
The past is impossible
the present still hard.
The only way to make a difference
is to look to the future
and move forward
one step at a time.
