What caused our tailor
to stop in midway of his work?
What stopped his hands
while sewing, and brought his moving feet
to a standstill?
What was that thought?
Was it some past event, or a possible fear
of an event in the future?
Or was it something that overwhelmed
him in his present train of thoughts?
Only he knows what happened,
Or maybe after the moment has passed,
he also has forgotten…
