Analysis of Put Forward
Seeing him leave, broad and slightly bended,
I’ve put this preview in the list of cold chums.
He’s going for sure. Today by then has ended
in a vacuum cleaners mouth, with crumbs.
Sterility, the house, soon it succumbs.
Without his eyes, why glow, show color.
Inert matter, the dead things, they holler
at the skirting, at walls, molds are die-cast:
Without his warmth, this is home of the mauler!
Void is felt now. Tomorrow’s nearing fast.
