Present Made of Past by Vishal Swami

In this long journey of countless years and ages,

We changing humans,

To big cities from small villages.

In this long travel of walking slow to flying fast,

We learning creatures

Live in the present made of the past.

In this long night

Of sleeping on hard stone to comfy bed,

We grew lazy

Because of comfort and junk we got fed.

In this long sleep

Of dreaming to what dreams meant,

We lost sleep

To work over night for rent.

In this long development

Of cave painting to digital art,

We creative beings

Live in the Present made of the Past.

In this long fighting

Of mean kings to clever leaders,

We lost trust

Because of masqueraders.

We all carry our Cultures,

Ethics that we leverage,

Deep inside we are connected

With our great Heritage.

Cultures evolve slow

Thinking changes fast,

Future become better

When we learn from Past.

We Humankind

Live in the Present made of the Past.
