675

pretty ring time

(jetlag series)

you fly beyond all time zones

until you're in and of the clock

you can always make up a story to be

it's coded – we're code

no glasses see through

make out

plotshape

colour

character

a cause

and find the lying stillness

in all the layers hum

a sea roar

and the aircon

a temperature adjusts

until time settles back into

you won't know where you are

traceless, the gone worlds

hear them hum

lost orbits

echoes of the spin

a stretch in all directions

we pile up like snow here

to imitate time

one dizzy insect comes

to intimate

let me be dark of first light

and birds do sing

hey ding a ding a ding

home is the nowhere hum
