Shower by Jon-Jacob F DealI turn the knob and I step in Another day washed from my skin Twenty-four man-made hours long But still I know I must be strong; Most likely, it will be a while Before, with an innocent blue-green smile The shower starts and the Earth spins in To wash my lifetime from Her skin. 09/29/2001
Author's Note: The word "ephemeral" springs to mind... I never really liked that word.
