As in Days of Yore

When the sun sinks
Man Drinks
From the Lillie lined pool
Where many a fool
Has drunk before.

As in days of yore
So it is now.
I think on how
Everything has changed
Yet remains the same.

The fool
Still drinks
As the sun sinks
Over the stagnant pool
Where lillies have long since gone to seed,
Vultures feed
And luxuriant weeds
Supply all needs.
