None of this is New (Day 6 Prompt: News)

There is 
nothing new 
under the sun,

except us
and our 
consciousness.

The Stoics believed
no man steps 
into the same stream 
twice. 
 
So, 
the words may be new,
but the themes are
unchanging and
universal:

desire
greed
avarice
tragedy
pain
struggle.

We change 
and the world changes
and none of this is 
new,

except 
this 
very 
moment
and 
everything
it 
touches.
