Time Vs Time

Time is not justly counted by increments...

like a pie all crust can have space without filling 
it disappoints – 

too much wasted by reluctant planning – 

few visions of living ever leaving the station of 
Excursion – like a dynasty of tempting brochures culminating in
tenure, that far more brave and less credentialed travel faithfully
outright...

Triumph's Reckless Youth vs Pompous Charted Night

such licensed surveyors expose dark by tiny bits called 
stars, seeing only seconds, oblivious to stuffed longer 
gigantic days' leaps packed into uncharted universes

time shallowly used is soul
and spirit only outside basted,

exterior roast__toast

while the bloody inside
left yearning release,
for its surface~ burning!

when time is too contemplated,
measured, set in plates of orderly
rations – seasoned but only tasted
(a belly denied lumps of glutenous
impulsive passions)

it is a written novel

with no real claims
to glory....

Time then...is only Time

dimly expressing God's timeless
true story
