Although the ecstasies we feel
consist of simple things combined
into a mixture which may reveal.
Defences can be undermined
...

Tempus Fugit

The minutes pass by fast or slow
They come and go

A quality which lies within
but others can bask in its glow.

My boredom deepens momentarily.

I sometimes watch but I choose carefully
...

My get up and go has got up and gone
tired of waiting it’s gone on alone.
I am content to just and wait.
It’ll come back with tales to relate.
