Biding Time / Ezra Fern
oh,
Sad sun child
Mourns a loss
That none
But
His
Children
(and children’s children)
Will feel.
oh,
Petulant (yet bitterly optimistic),
D r i v e,
You opt for a change
Of which
You
Will never
See the outcome.
You understand,
[thank You /thank You/ thank You for understanding]
that (now) all decisions
Are made
While those
Who set them
Into
Motion
Only look in the mirror.
