time
the way it rolls around
fat
and hungry sometimes
it takes you by surprise
and you need it to
time…
seconds or hours?
they seem to stretch and bend as they please
laughing at us
or crying with us
it all depends
how heavy it’s feeling
that swing to and fro
and the glasses of wine it consumes
how many times it has to
push its glasses back
while you
consume and consume
you know
the way we do
and i
i might turn away
but my heart is saying
we should never have left that room
and maybe
we could have belonged together
that is
in another time.
