TIME

It is the minutes
before my choices make
my body
whir like rollerblades.

It is the day
of fissions.

It is the Sunday
before last
when I had a lot
to eat
and little to
contribute
to the readership.

***



Time-
it is a breathless ally
I can use against the
lofty labours
of your
photocopiers
and plagiarisms.



***

Time, as we all know,
is always
fleeting.

It doesn't come
for me
before your
table of contents.
