Tony Avila Sampson Poems

Was TIME born with all the sky?
Can TIME suffer and also die?
Is TIME flat? Or is TIME round?
Where is TIME? Can TIME be found?
...

Feel captivities firm grip smother out the fun,
The stretch of its reach felt with each pass of the sun;

Metal doors slam shut, rumbling their echos down the hall,
...

He went to a public library that's quiet and free;
Arrested, he was, for murder, in the first degree;

Inside the library, there was a book to find,
...

No rhythm, no rhyme,
death, sets you apart,
isolated in time,
when it's time to depart;
...

To slip on the pavement is a far better pain,
Than the tongue that slips, its trouble to gain;

A sweltering tongue comes full of much scorn,
...

You have made me so very fierce,
So your car tires, I now will pierce;

To find you car then, yes I must
...

When I bent and reached there down,

The tire made a hissing sound;
...

Movement of matter, with time find name,
However it may be there must also be flame;

Casting out matter becoming planets in tow,
...

Poppa Zetire will search late at night,
To find your four tires, he'll be very quite;

Moving about while lookin' very slow,
...

Me, you inspire,
With a slashing desire,
I'll make your car sit less higher,
...
