Just for to pause
And so let pass
In its own sufficient time
A Day. Slow as!
To be changed by
As to allow!
Tense-eased, life-gripped. As showed
For wrinkled brow.
Hour of it grassed
That courtesy
Eerie-stepped, * restores our sense
Of Eternity.
*Windiness
Layers of dust gathered
Resulting from
One's laziness
Windiness of the day
Dryess of the weather
Pollution from heavy traffic
But
Dust gathered beneath your feet
Resembles you
When that day come
You're burnt to ashes
In a big inferno
