Rose + Snail

the quotidian
is today
and tomorrow
until the end

the end
is no concern
of the snail's
or mine

our task
is to struggle
to the center
of the rose
or breath
at the end
of the line

breathe-signs
signal signatures
signed

only then
will done
be
done
and words
sealed

'breath-signs
signal signatures
signed'
My fav stanza and it kinda rolls off ones tongue so smoothly.
