Heads or tails? That's always a tricky one... I'll choose head's this time around. There's a 50-percentage chance that it may backfire, but if I don't try it, how will I know? Talking about fire I use to own a Zip lighter once, well... I still do but it's gone, somewhere. I used to love holding it in my hand and playing with it, opening the lid, closing the lid shut, even passing my finger through the flame, just to feel what it felt like. Luckily, I never burnt my finger, yet, touch wood.
Back to where I was, oh yes, the coin, but which coin? That's another good question, see the bigger the coin the longer it takes for the coin to rotate, but with weight and gravity, it gets pulled down faster, till it hits a surface. Sometimes it's in my pocket, other times I've lost it, sometimes I get short changed, but there's always options and It takes time to accumulate. Dear you must be confused, well it is complicated... but by that chance I took, a chain of events arose. Call it a purse or a wallet, it still has the same purpose, to obtain a currency of value, by landing flat out, light as a feather, heavy as a burden, coins don't flip themselves, do they?
You see how I switch from one to the other? Maybe I could juggle, balance from one to the other, but what is the purpose. To take a chance, or did I take a chance, Past tense to present tense. That coin didn't flip itself... but where did it land?
Moments; singular, siphoned, like grains of sand which fall restlessly, and build without limits...growing with increasing momentum, each step, beat, a steady staccato , marking down the minutes until the cold inevitability of the ...end ...death.
Moments...it's all anyone has. Life is a false illusion. Death is cold reality. I am a Treader. I deal in the currency of death, and I know everything there is to know about it's cold worth.
I am useful, never loved.
I am used, never thanked.
I am need, want, and lust....but never needed or wanted.
I am never fulfilled. I am never to know human happiness.
I have accepted my designed fate.
Why then am I being tested now?? What will happen if I give in to the temptation I know will be my undoing?
What will happen if I give in...and love?
What will my failure bring...and may those above and below have mercy on all souls, for when the Treader of death falls for life...
Worlds End.
