Life – The Zen Poetic

The Rat Race

Turbo heat engine 
Race against time
Rallying almost causes exhaustion

Repeat After Me

Fallen from branch to the ground
Tread on
Kicked
Stamped
Forgotten

Disintegrated by the cold rain
Melded
Mashed
Crushed
Squashed

Long gone when months pass by 
I look to spring and forget how you died
Summer comes along again
The death that Autumn brought with it is to blame

This cycle of life and death, this is nature's beautiful game.
