Since the Beginning

JESUS BETANCOURT 1955 (New York)

Running an existence marathon pace
Everyday, since the beginning
Along with the rest of the human race
All the way, to the ending

What is the ultimate destination
All of us haven't left planet Earth
" One small step for Man", on the Moon was a declaration
Assuming words carry more than their worth
