contrary to
conformity
finding com
fort in in divi
duality she's
the redhead
in canada
that uses
her words
carefully
and her
pen as
an anvil
knowing
which word
even before
writing it down
what shape it will
take maybe a
razor sharp
blade of
a haiku
katana
or simply
to wait for
the weight
of a twist of
her wrist and
end a poem while
brandishing in hand
a Scots broad sword
but haven't you heard
that a sculptor can
size a marble
stone no
matter
the size
by touch
knowing if
this is where
an arm will be
then all falls into
place proportionately
placing an arm
at arm's length
and the waist not
to waste a single
chip of chisel to take
away the balance of what
figure that is figured out to
be even to the tiniest detail
so as Michelangelo
lay on top of the
stone that he
knew would
become
David
he runs
and rubs
his hands
over what will be
come a young
man's ribs
and down
lower his
mind al
ready
sees
what
people
will talk
about for
centuries
of mankind
and manhood

Given enough time you realize who your friends are
At best you don't have many
At worst you don't have any
Friends forget family neglects
All it takes is time
Love thought of as true,
Will be undone and come unglued
Promises broken
Words unspoken
All it takes is time
Time reveals the truth
Time illuminates your path
You'll understand
what stands the test of time
Is all you ever had
Time teaches appreciation
Time builds a clearer sharper mind
Even if in the end you find
You have nothing
But...time
