tap, tap, tap ...
fingers rapping on matter, gray
spun, (like wool to tapestry)
hooked on rusted nails of hope
and tattered by cyclonic change, demanding
afforded to squeeze sense through the eye of an hourglass
grains dropping as weighty promise, jilted
melting into ice, aflame ... frozen
call it, friend, tails or heads?
"But what am I flipping for?"
... everything, friend
everything.
