time please
time is all beyond me
just out the window there
time was before me as well
and time is winging in
so delicate, diaphanous
I'm for the river
I'm washed off
towards the all I need to know
I dedicate my time
the story is telling me
that's the arrow
I'm listening
to be proven
I'm at the heart of it
pierced, bleeding
the mouse is on a timer
treads the turning heart
I'm the one who fired it off
I'm listening for the tick-tock
I'm on the beat, I'm off
the arrow turns
the calendar runs up a wall
time will be where I'm behind
confusions of the dawn dusk light
it's like this
it's a life's work to be in the moment
where I will take my time
Kit, your time poems really rock! Everytime I try penning a poem about time, it often comes across as very trite & clichéd ... I don't know how you consistently manage to pull off such awesome time poems but you do. You've got it down to a fine art :))
