the Pendulum swing

so i met some interesting people today
you ever feel like your constantly meeting people at the wrong time---- i can truly see in the dark caverns in my the back of my mind a giant pendulum swinging that is off beat by just a few seconds -- which really altars everybody by 2-3 years. It has skipped me a few beats a few years. it's a constant tease of what direction life could possibly branch off into, thinking so cautiously not to in any way hinder my appreciation for my current place in my thread of time. though - I will never know since i cant touch the Giant pendulum swinging back and forth at an unstoppable pace ever so silent. I would stop and reset the pace "if I could" almost like a snooze button that does its job right rather than confirming the procrastinating nature of the imperfect human (hitting that button ten times). yet without true foresight that very snooze button could be the my true pendulum. a few minutes could be the difference of my life.
