Repeat

Luis Silvestre Torres 1980 (Massachusetts)



Suffering, fight it, repeat.
Wake up, sleep, repeat.
Inhale, exhale, repeat.
Eat, digest, toilet, repeat.
Push up, push down.
Sustain heartbeats repeat.
Routine in everyday life.
For the need to repeat liveliness.
Repeat "completed" cycles,
Nature re-breathes.
