Far Ahead

The Future
 by Rainer Maria Rike

The Future ; time's excuse

to frighten us; too vast 
a project , too large a morsel
for the hears mouth.


The future, who wont wait for you ?
Everyone is going there
It takes suffices you to deepen


The absence that we are .


In the first couple lines of this poem it tells a perfect point of view . When thinking about the future it could either be a positive thought or a negative thought. This author Rainer Rike choose to say the future it there to frighten us. Being scared of the future makes the presence seem a mystery.Which relates to our society today ,  some think the worlds going to end in 2012 ,  some people believe that the government will plant chips in all of us. All these subliminal facts about the world ending it to much to grasp and engage.




"The future , who wont wait for you ?" The future doesnt wait on anyone. This poem explorts mixed feelings through out the poem . You just have to wait for the future to come . Dont get your hopes high on a perfect future because they could be let down. You cant expect something out the future , you just have to wait for it. Thinking about the future makes your mind travel , Rainer left it simple .The future is full of suprises and leaves mixed feelings , weather its being scared or excited everyone is going to the future.
