Watching
Pulse of sure time
Fits awkward rhymes
Toil for sad spoils
To cream and boil
Sight gives a glimpse
Of surreal dreams
Just one more chance
Laugh, sing and dance
Sense vain desire
That now conspires
Greedy wants grow
A guilty show
Time to discard
Words that retard
Line follows line
In tangled vine
No need to show
A lousy flow
Watching for rhymes
As query chimes
For each a space
To face that face
Mood swings and gall
Come now to call
To be set free
Is up to me
Health shapes true wealth
Yet wealth kills health
So farewell then
I know not when
Journey starts bright
Till darkness lights
