Short Impassible Poems

Your words ringing in my ears
Like bits of history
Of time lost
Play their tune
In my absent mind
Numbed by the frozen wait
Now silence keeps sneaking

In permanent obsessions
Disappears
In impassible moving sands
As I watch
Hopeless

I'm impassible
I'm impartible
I'm impalpable
I'm impenetrable
I'm so 'hmm'...
