Greed and Fall

As I struggled in the dark lane at dawn With noisy crickets giving rhythms in my trance I recalled myself, 'a diamond among the sea of glass' Who once sat on a winning lottery But my gigantic hunger made the curtain of life fall. Will I have a second bite at a cherry? One that comes with grits and stars? Not in dusks but sunrise in life? These questions kept knocking through my brain while the yellow light rested on my cheek. I hope to break the circle and make it count again!
