All things fail to stay
Today, tomorrow mocks yesterday
all things fail to stay
In sullen sorrow I stand up to slay
all that stands in the way of tomorrow
yet another dying day to borrow
born into a new today
all things fail to stay
all things fail to stay
In sullen sorrow I stand up to slay
all that stands in the way of tomorrow
yet another dying day to borrow
born into a new today
all things fail to stay

This reminds me very much of Sylvia Plath's style, that sudden, subtle repetition of sounds that come through the lines. I like to call it "mad girl repetition" for affectionate reasons. I love these short poems, the ones that can make you think about something in just a few lines. "All things fail to stay" is such a killer title.
Good little read this one. Thank you.
