You can't. (As far I know)

1. :after or ::after is a pseudo element which allows you to insert content after a selector through CSS. It's not a selector.

2. As :after is used to insert content but you haven't added any content so it will have no effect on your page.

CSS

.ezt-box:after {
    cursor: pointer;
    float: right;
}

Try adding content and see the change after page renders to browser.

CSS

.ezt-box:after {
    content:"----some random text";
    cursor: pointer;
    float: right;
}
