Times’s footsteps
In an inexorable march with
Counterfeit quiet
Time’s heartbeat
One and the same:
Catcher and caught

Time’s
Escape
Low or high,
Escape the spirits –
Veritable sprites with an
Inexhaustible
Taste for flight, ever
Young and yet brief
Selected by Fit
Tinder, tender,
Orders, odors,
Officials, offense,
Lies, limits, lips:
Selected by fit.
Wonder.
What steals it away?
Our curiosity and awe –
Nature or nurture? What
Displaces our joy of discovery with
Endless ennui for such
Ridiculously wonderful things?
Like My Mind
Left in a very specific place
Over here (or over there?)
So that I’ll definitely find it.
Terrific.
Arrogant Delusions
Putting emotions on the
Line by pretending, or more
Accurately, deluding yourself (a
Need all too common) – its falsehood
Slowly revealed by time.
Art with a Spirit
Hard work makes
Art with a spirit and a soul that
No factory line can even
Dream to achieve, yet those factory and
Mill-made pieces undermine and diminish
All the effort, vision, and
Diligence poured into each piece – due to
Everyone’s unrealistic expectations of price.
Overwhelming Exhaustion
Initially, we try to
Negotiate the ins and outs,
Telling ourselves that the
Right skills will take away the
Overwhelming exhaustion so
Vexingly integrated with
Each and every social gathering. Then,
Racked with conflict at each invitation, we’re
Tormented by the question:
Share the fun or enjoy the quiet?
