In five graceless minutes,
the world's will
(so willfully driven)
will end, will come like a kingdom,
will come to an end.
In significance,
there is meaning. Nothing
more strenuous
than understanding
the limitations of time.
"This journal is not a mere literary diversion. The further I progress, reducing to order what my past life suggests, and the more I persist in the rigor of composition--of the chapters, of the sentences, of the book itself--the more do I feel myself hardening in my will to utilize, for virtuous ends, my former hardships. I feel their power." --Jean Genet
