Sweep away the past, and all
The times that brought you sorrow

Pelting shapely pebbles into the lucid lake,
Lonely, among daffodils and golden mandrakes,
And rejoicing the dance of silver flakes,

Sweep away gloom, keep enough room
Wake up hope, break down sadness enough

To sweep away the detritus
Of life’s lingering keepsakes
Scratching the gold-plated spears
Dodging deaths deadline 
Struggling to be remembered

Ecologically egotistical entrepreneurs
