Eye’s wide open,
I was falling into the columbines
of watchful trembling.
By the seasons who would always
rely on acceptable persuasions to suggest,
we-call-it-death.
One leaf
passed by days when green.
Now destined for color and refined subtleness,
it holds on.
Tilted
under the message it had grown.
Wontedly paralyzed, it captures me once more.
Do I follow?
Or do I look for another reason to go further, again.
Passing the finish
from where the line of answers the answered.
This leaf knowing and falling
as far as it really came from.
Will I?
