Rob Schackne #8 - Three Minutes With Reality

Three Minutes With Reality

                                      i.m. Astor Piazzolla

It takes so little to get the three minutes
or so much depending where you are
the three minutes might be sombre
or ecstatic or just plain quiet
the trick is to be there at the time

After that they look back and say
your life will never be the same
three minutes of a battle or a burn or love
you were outside it and now you're in
well what do they know it's not a club

You survive that and you survive the next
and the three minutes fall down like rain
gets louder and louder and then it stops
three minutes with reality float by like clouds
but please don't get the wrong idea
