Peaks

It is the constant present
That we come to resent
The way time gains whats sent,

Sending the traveler backwards
Not into the mountains but towards
Valley's slung low as branching wards,

Cirrus clouds spread like handwriting
Facing the reader with their writing
Lest the journeyer stops to write.
