4. The future: time's excuse to frighten us; too vast a project, too large a morsel for the heart's mouth. Future, who won't wait for you? Everyone is going there. It suffices you to deepen the absence that we are.

5.  The unknown scares every one  depicts the idea that the future is too large to predict, control, or comprehend  Why is this part posed as a question? -Is it sarcasm? Everyone is going, and when tomorrow comes you’ll be there anyway. Will we move with time or stay in the past because it’s what we know?  The future continues, the present grows, memories deepen, and a little more of us is gone everyday, -the more you know the more you understand how much you don’t know The future: time's excuse to frighten us; too vast a project, too large a morsel for the heart's mouth. Future, who won't wait for you? Everyone is going there. It suffices you to deepen the absence that we are.
