Changing World

you live in a changing world 
you try to keep up 
it’s spinning faster 
than the speed of thought 

examine yourself to see 
if pieces still fit 
staring at the ceiling 
you can’t stop the spin 

she lives in a changing world 
dancing to it 
you feel biology kick in 
you’ve got to be with it 

she embraces the new 
without hesitation 
you search for contradictions
holding reservations 

you hold onto the past 
in a photograph 
hiding it in a book 
refusing to digitize it
