Sit
You sit
They sit
Persons heavier  than you sit
Stand
I stand
On legs
Firmly built
Perhaps you could stand too
Give a rest
To a poor chair
Did I choose
This life
I think not
And yet
I don’t complain
I can’t
I don’t speak
So
For the time being
Sit
You sit
They sit
Let all sit.

I happen to notice that you choose unusual topics for your poems and stories. But they're very good and descriptive and my favorite was the one about the Titanic--I made a comment on most of your pieces. Great work!
