The Facts About Time
The Facts About Time
I told my friend
who is across the Atlantic
in Italy, and I tell her it's the land
of "my" people.....on my mother's side
I told her "I have a poem in me"
and I do
but it's 1 o'clock on a Saturday
the sun in shining so warm now
yet here I am. Indoors,
like someone super glued me to this chair
until I give birth to this poem
like it hurts ....this racing mind
and as usual I'm thinking about Time
backwards it's "Emit"
which means "to produce" or....
"come out with" !
backward or forwards
it's "Time to come out with"
questioning my own time
here
"Will my dreams come true"?
or is this IT?
nevertheless, I feel strongly....
that I will forever have a Poem in me.
