river…
I flow with the time
my feet walk past me
tick tack echoes, air thickens
making pace with time’s clock
I flow with my waters
gurgling,cascading, falling
taking with me, time’s bounties
gems of bygone ages
sparkling, scintillating, cutting
bifurcating skies…
earth moves underneath my feet
keeps me grounded
as I kneed time with tentative hours
held captive by days
I search for leftover seconds
in washed and dried dishes
I rush to reach twilight
before it arrives at my horizon
I fight the urge to sip my ocean
as my destiny beckons…
