Jim Tomcatx Poet Free verse

brittle branch

i'm 
  connected to 
a brittle 
      branch
   disconnected 
from a 
    tree of
     life

i 
i am 
i am writing
i am running
 out of time

i write in a place
   out of time
i write in a time
   out of place

it's go time 
     it's gone
time has gone
    time is wasted

i'm going
 nowhere
    where
 anything goes
into a wasted
 land
out of time

for
 i am
writing
  out of time
for
  time is wasting
  words
for 
   words 
 create timeless
  despair

  despair
breaks
a brittle
   branch
inside my
treeless life
inside a timeless
        tomb

i
i am 
  i am building 
i build a
  bridge to
        no land

i
i write
  i am writing
  these poems
these poems
 write me
these poems
 erase me

time
  erases
    me
