eternal enmity


they fight each other
jostling and shoving
and just when you think
it's over and one has won
the fight starts
all over again

one has time on its side
while the other swears
on the cycle called life
one says there's but death
at the end of it all
the other says
we die to be reborn

you see it everyday
in the changing of seasons
the death of an old man
or the birth of new ones
the setting of the sun
the rains and the droughts
there's this fight everywhere
from dusk to dawn

and yet this is all
that's there to life

the fight between green and yellow
