The Long Story

Clearly time has taken its toll

fallen leaves on trees that have lived for one hundred years

he step on cracks of feet beaten streets

listen to its heart beat

its story is interesting too

he says

wrinkles, lines of passage on his face

follow them, what a tale

yellow stained pages of his book

Do you know your history well?

he asks

he opens his mouth and speaks of those things

does he really know what he says-

clearly time has taken its toll

clearly.
