Busy

 
Full-on rage of the sun,
without which we would not be live in limb,
burns up the redbrick days in succession
till paths are filled with browning leaves.
What we call indifference
powers down at noon and sifts the waters,
drifts the mind to unthought, the body to shade.
Provider we accuse of cruelty
from all we feel, when stars come forth
in tears and patches in city sky.
The sun lacks all respect.
In this soft moment when heat subsides
we care for ourselves, we think anew.
We can change nothing, reverence a glass of water.
