Solidarity

Poetry: Real Time (Almost) Volume 4

The singer sings to stay away
Yet
Yes, yet
What purpose is served
Better to transfer
Assorted thoughts and emotions
One before the other
One following after the other
World without end
Breath everlasting

The singer is transitory
Filled with impermanence
Whereas what I shoulder
Is more akin
To yesterday’s granite
Whittled away
By wind
By wave
By sea
As also by love
