I copied a very short poem by Mike Royko but I didn't pay close attention to the punctuation.

"The sun rolls down like a golden tear. Another day. Another day. Gone."

I can't find where I got it from and can't google it. Any ideas what could have been the original?
The way I have it, it looses the impact I know is there.
Thanks in advance.
MKS

This is what I see:

The sun rolls down like a golden tear.
Another day.
Another day gone.

Thank you both Dorian and Jenny for your answers.
I couldn't find the poem but - interesting. I didn't know about the Google book search.
Now I'm signed up that will come in handy.
Thanks again. MKS
