At Things Move On (-& On)...
-But we wonder about the world, out there...,
-Beyond our families and friends…
-The steps, or crises, seen elsewhere…,
-Some to applaud, some seeming without end...(!).
-We hope we can still achieve stuff…
-With less threat from disease, or war…
-But, as we’re older-living, increasingly…
-Will our successes prove our flaws…? (!).

I am...
wondering, if maybe your native language might be Latin based, like Spanish? Your lines seem to have that quality about them, in the way they are structured. I think you have a typo in your title, and what is with the dashes beginning the lines and the ellipsis on the end? ~ Geezer.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

At (As?) Things Move On
Hello!
I like the message and meaning here, and share many of these thoughts. Should the title be "As" instead of "At" - maybe? I, too, wonder about the intent of the bullets and ellipses.
Welcome to Neopoet. I look forward to reading more!
