PARTING

by Nevada Kerr


Win or lose, it's what we do
It's the only way to go
Up and down and all around
Moving to and fro

Pass it on, hand it down
Bicker like a fool
Trade it in and carry on
Seed and stem and root

Tit for tat and that is that
After this, who knows
After all the world is flat
And love, it comes and goes

Hit the road, the mother lode
The motherland is gone
Quantum code or gloomy ode
We break before we bond

Cast adrift without a home
One by one we bend
And in the end we're all alone
Till we meet again
