Raw: Killing Time

Some days
I hate Time…

It gives with one hand
experience
wisdom,
kittens, pups, and babes
thrill of anticipation
promises of joy
and hope…

And with the other, takes
youth and beauty
enthusiasm,
illusions that were joy,
dangles promises
just out of reach,
kills hope.

Land Without Time
Dreamtime,
invite me…
I’ve had enough
of teasing.
