Masters of the Universe

---

In vain we wander,
to and fro,
accomplish feats
and gain success;
develop sciences,
and master them on end.

Then break whatever hinders
our endless journey forth
throughout a universe unknown,
filled with desire
to learn and conquer, and destroy –
so that one day
just 'fore our final breath
the other wandering souls might say:
"And mastered it he has..."
but perishing,
to realise
that what was mastered
will remain
to teach a lesson dear –

to master Life or live It, is our choice...
