The Fourth Sung-Poem
I
How crucial is a given time? How?
Tuba-Tuba-Tuba Rhyme-Rhyme-Rhyme.
Your minutes jingling like dimes. How?
Tuba-Tuba-Tuba Chime-Chime-Chime.
Days ‘like spit-out cherry seeds. How?
Tuba-Tuba-Tuba Bit-Bit-Bit;
Months like the berries on your tongue. How?
Succulent but don’t last for long!
Years like a Sukkah up and down How?
Sukkah-Sukkah-Sukkah flew around.
Decades are walking slower then: How?
Walking, walking, walking 1 to 10
So, a life is crawling anyhow...
Just rarely nine decades allowed.
Though, seems you can try hard forever,
there’s never time to think and stare…
II
You’re working day, you’re working night;
you’re busy, so you feel all right;
But doing things without thoughts is
to live life like a goat.
