Time: don't read this if you are an Elvis fan

Mr. Gurdjieff called time the "Merciless Heropass".
All the heroes? time gets them all eventually.
We recently saw some pictures of Elvis Presley
the great entertainment figure of Rock and Roll.
Unfortunately, we learned he needed to dye his hair
even though he was 42 when he died, there are a few
images in existence from his classic jumpsuit years
where one can see grey hair in his sideburns and
around his temples. He needed to keep dying his
hair to keep projecting the image. We live in a world
of smoke and mirrors. We try to put off death.
Apparently even though only in his forties his hair
was turning grey, such were the pressures and
intensity in his life.
