Mikaela Castledine #175 Time

Time is overwound
the spring steel of it
the cogs all meshing
beating adrenaline fast
so breathless
and at twenty minutes to morning
scraping the very bottom of the day
I haven’t any time to spare
for proper poetry

  1. I love those opening lines. And I absolutely and totally understand and empathise about not having time to spare for poetry. I feel exactly the same way at the moment. I really enjoyed this.

  4. I like improper poetry, myself – if this is an example.
