The future’s vast
Embrace the past;
The deeds of everyone
Outweigh the few
And what they have done
Now trumps what they might do.
With future battles to be fought
Together we’ll prevail, I thought;
United we can tip the scale
Now we can see the point at last.
Present, future or the past
For humankind to survive
Which one will survive
Or are they, as some claim,
All the same?
