I have again become empty
by undoing
a disturbing thought.
Unsexing
the sputtering stillness
of a Robin.
Tender bruises
on the pink heart.
A bird was flying away.
Little tears
come down from the swollen
river in spate.
Pain lingers
as you want an answer
from an eroding dune.

seconds
fade
slowly
wearing away
not enough
too much
watch the time pass
one....two....three
seconds
gone
more to come
seconds turn to minutes
minutes to hours
hours to days
days to weeks
eventually the seconds
you had
are gone
days pass
seconds linger
you rush the time
you hate the wait
soon
you wonder
where is the time
where'd it go
then you
DIE
now
where did the
time
GO?

Ode
the chaffing entropy
of self-maintenance
combing human features
into land-slips
predestined by its engineering
an electric screwdriver
skitters away
from its moving parts
dishes in the sink
soap suds wearing away
willow patterns
a domestic maintenance
erodes ceramic bones
they grow thin and break
replaced by tougher plastic bandages
we dry our hands
notice it is evening
turn on a vintage
hundred year old lamp
few things live longer
than times short shelf-life
