An Einstein Day

An Einstein Day

A little boy
Bouncing
A
Pink & yellow ball
To the sound of a factory near
Pumping used solvents 
Into the air.

Bouncing with a 
Precision 
While looking to the skies above as an old,
Hunched man about several backpacks of years
Walks by and asks,
"Do you have the time, little boy?"

"No sir,"
the boy replies.
"But one day I will."
