in a world of failures.
machines
break down over time.
lights
die,
batteries,
tools get worn out,
the fence falls,
the gate comes off its
hinges.
bulbs go dark.
we have to take the stairs
when
the elevator
stops.
the escalator refuses to take
us up
or down.
ships sink,
airplanes fall from
the sky.
we're always surprised,
but we go on
in spite of it all,
don't we?
