TIME OUT

One day he decided

to stop getting new feeds,

favorites, and services.

Instead, he sent himself

down to the roses in the park.

He promised the sunshine

he would stay silent.

He listened to the wind’s words.

The roses were resting,

as was the planet itself,

as was the whole soothing universe.

So he sat on the grass

that gave its services

as softly as the roses.
