Let the Earth catch up to us. We run Each year a bit too fast, so we must wait, Adjusting the dynamics to the date, Pausing as the Earth spins round the sun. Years do not line up with days, and so Eventually summer would be spring. A word serves just the thinker, not the thing. Revolving Earth cares not what dates dates grow. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon.
