If we are Nature's detour
To get to five great names
You are number six
Just neglected by these days
With all the confusion around
Hate, schedules, and possibilities
Under solar-system simulations
Your hesitations elegy
These are the last days
We will spend in this room
Another temporary shell
To help me protect you
On any ordinary night
A sip would last a song
But tonight you're up, on your way out the door
In half as long
