I'm responding to the Sammi Cox Weekend Writing Prompt ("Ephemeral") with a Sevenling.
Not familiar with the Sevenling form? You can read all about it HERE. Fair Warning: Addictive.

Ephemerality, Occasionally
Even though we know it can't,
almost everything, almost always,

In the end, we become clock watchers
knowing it'll tick and tick and tick
with no two ticks the same.
But we just keep hanging on anyway.
