Time Adjourned

The throb of the obeisance is to
   alternate a action of speech at a unset action .
 Yet to breath into a beautiful desire, called Life.
   Not long til the sunrise and the fate is pressed 
to assign the function of meditation or ability.




                                  -Quateria Greene
