Stay Still

We are glad

We are meek

Minutes pass

Then a week

Through the window

A breeze

I can make

My mind stay still

When I work

By the sill

Of my window

I hear

Metal hearts

Clicking heels

Chatterbox

Clacking steel

Former glories

I can make

My mind stay still

When I work

By the sill

Of my window

Stay until

The moon is out

Cool your head

Float about

Until morning

I hear
