You Know, You Should Keep This Untitled 

The fallen leaves draw a conclusion 
I hesitate to reach. A growing sapling amidst 
the bricks does.
Some conclusions I cannot reach 
are in the whistling of the crazy nomad 
who has coiled his addicted sleep 
on the concrete below our building. 
Sometimes I comprehend, see the clouds 
in the mirror and the shine in my eyes once they rain.
