Take Two

In the first take
Crisp break did make
In broken stake


Scenes of a kind
Where eyes once blind
Could see strange finds


Odd lot and play
Upon the way
Stretch anxious say


We thought we knew
Through all things new
Such sumptuous stew


Too late to seek
The higher peak
With sinews weak


Sense a void here
In fleeting spheres
Fear thoughts appear


Take Two frames end
As wit curls blend
In faded trends


Words float on feel
In drowning spill
Of inner chill


Rhymes fade away
In tedious stray
Of night and day


Empty thoughts breeze
In random squeeze
Of ooze and sneeze


Once upon fun
Laughter did run
With curious pun
