Why Worry? Poem by Bengt O Björklund

Why Worry?



Talons of trepidation rip at soft dying skin,
at the very core of serene nihilistic sensibility,
whereas I, as it happened, moved within,
in a state of long lost train station tranquillity.

I wish I was a withering pagoda height,
without any thoughts of besieged tomorrow.
That way I wouldn’t face the cuckoo’s fight,
just someone you shouldn’t steal to follow.
