People change

People change
Like rustic metal through water
They become strange
Rising and...or falter

Young saplings
Sprouting from the earth
Affected by weather
Living, dying after birth

Sweetened pear
Left on the kitchen stand
Left bare
Like a soured, old-timer's hand

People change
To vanish or for fame
Like pieces re-arranged
Life is but a game
