Inner Light
You’re a traffic light
you hang there
shine in sun
sway in wind
drip in rain, ice, snow
go yellow red green
one way
green yellow red
the other
destiny duty done
same color color color
after same color color color
forever and ever for men
to no then
no later
ever changing never changing
until some end
a broken relay, a rusted pin
gets you fixed and working again
or dust binned
