Would you like the world
to end now
(in your lifetime)
so you don't miss
anything?
Would you like the world
to go on
so that someone
later
might feel as
you once did?
Did you feel anxious
when alone?
Did you feel restless
at parties?

If clear yellow petals
are enough
like sails,
I'll be well
away.
I'll be on my way
to this
late summer dusk
