Y

 

Y (Or A Study Into Forecasting)

By: Rodolfo Perez

 

Intricacies of life,

State your existence!

The fallen love,

The fallen loved one,

Is this the purpose of life?

Will we find it on the shore of an untouched beach?

Or at the bottom of a glass?

Is it in our hearts?

Or in our lungs?

When I hear your sirens,

And see your tears,

What is a man to do in response?

Should he tighten his jaw and clench his fist,

Like so many men before him?

Or shall he lift his shoulders and fancy a drink,

Like so many men before him?
