11:59 On the brink of a…

(Reposted for your pleasure...since first publishing this poem in 2007 this poem has inspired many other writers and event organisers across the world)

We all experience it, we all dread it
Buzzing with excitement or caged by fear
Change birth stress and
Stress forces change

A change is looming at eleven fifty-nine
For we all experience change in our lives, at some time
A change of day, a change of month or year
We lose or gain something, someone dear

You could love it
You could hate it
One thing is natural
We all must have it

If your clock doesn’t stop ticking
You are bound to be changing
For even when your clock stops
Change even in death you must

But why we say eleven fifty nine?
By no means maligned
A lot you can buy with dollar and dime
But not much can be given in exchange for time

Change is neither certain nor constant
For only time changes change
And change changes time.
Whatever your story, things never remain the same
After Eleven fifty-nine
