Sunset Sensation

sunset sensation
bubbling river-brook
rumbling bridged-street

takes what breathe I have
gives twicefold in wisdom

what use is wisdom
if dead and buried?

creatures invisible
eastwind, westwind too
around. all around

it locks us into caged-fear
for what lies beyond our deathbed
for what future may hold

it is the case for now
for impertinent action

Action from within a cage
plotting, scheming, feigning death
what options else lay before us?
