LISTLESS

I get listless at the thought

of having to press on

day dwindling down

night mounting the sky


but I was fooled by my body

into thinking this was all

and tired led to weary

and weary to fitful rest


bodies return to dust

and we all press on

this we realize afterward

when listlessness is gone


night dwindling away

when we enter that permanent day...I guess...
