Lifes Brief But Fascinating
LIFES BRIEF BUT FASCINATING.
I was in need of sweet potatoes and
Rich tomatoes,
I visited the market square.
So many people with different
Scents.
Tents all over, in different
Paints.
Goods are purchased in sets.
You must pay before collect.
I noticed, despite the crowd
There’s convience
Quantity of goods still at
Large lengths.
Mans wants has no rest,
With various races on the earth.
In this square there’s no friend,
I am here just to quench my taste.
Don’t loiter,
Buy what you need first,
That should be your quest
In avoiding regrets.
We must all go home to rest,
Against sunset.
