The Search

A parched soul
Looking for a watering hole,
Cannot find a drop, dries out.

A tumbleweed
Running across the sand dunes,
Cannot find a resting hole, tires out.

A lamp
Looking for darkness
Cannot find the dark, lights out.

The past
Searching in the present,
Cannot find itself, dies out.

  1. A fly
    buzzing around the room,
    finds it too clean, flies out.
