The Laborer’s Song
by Andrew Buckner
Exhausted, though staggering toil lie ahead
Lurking, indefinite creatures of deceit
Transpiring forms of unyielding dread
Waiting day’s close to unveil its empty conceit
Lurking, indefinite creatures of deceit!
So is the laborer’s song!
Cynical thought glimmers mock unto defeat
The heedless cycle of the dull hammer’s throng
So is the laborer’s song!
Transpiring forms of unyielding dread
The heedless cycle of the dull hammer’s throng
Exhausted, though staggering toil lie ahead!
