The lesson





The kitschy orange streak 
Of the sun about to set
Remind me of the lesson
That most do not get

The most stark and great
Often disintegrate 
From the powers so vicious
To fragments inconspicuous

Life is sticking to roots
Grapple odds and eat the fruits
Sustaining is name of the game
It's life no man can tame
