Election Day After

The claim was done
Of course he had to
Way before the result is called
While the race is still on
Both of them can come through
To get installed;

Waiting in line
Patiently
Another step closer
Every step at its time

Here we go for the sunshine
Privately settling just fine
Make a shift and start
Your engine be a part

Recognising cascades gleaming
Hurricanes of obsolescence
Finishing the distance here
Set a point
Make it clear

Back again
Where it all began
Thoughts about sense
Relating suspense

For another day goes by
Furniture and candles
Breathing memories let’s try
Forget about our scandals

Aphorism/us —
Change / Veränderung

Relaxing prior to the storm
Slowing down my heartbeat grow
In stature create a pose
Ignoring negativity that blows
From outside the resting eye

Strolling into town
Correcting my heavy crown
Everywhere I look is dust
Updating things I must

Standing firmly on the ground
Looking around
Seeing no-one
