                                                            Surrender
                                                             

                                                               Time
                                                     icy fingers...grasping
                                                             clutching
                                                            squeezing
                                                       
                                                      the trembling lemon
                                                              pleading
                                               begging to remain unplucked
                                                              yearning
                                                  to drink in sunlight forever
                                                               frantic
                                                               fearing
                                                   the gut of transformation
                                                      the grasp of oblivion

                                             screams give way to resignation
                                                   surrender to hopefulness
                                                    desperation to excitment
                                                    giddy with the promise...
                                                           the inevitability
                                                           of light's return
