Time by VIOLET BOWIE

44544

How unfair of the clock!

Still ticking, yet the world is on pause.
Time unwinds, steady and sure.

The seconds seep through the pin-sized hole in your pocket.

The minutes, the hours, the days
Leave you wondering which sidewalk
You may have lost it to.

A bathroom faucet left running while no one was home.
Oh, but how you didn’t mean to leave it running.
