The Impact of Sudden Unexpected Realisation
time came to me again
last night
and reminded me that
when it
chooses to, it can hurt
like hell ..
burning brief but hard
and deeply
with a certain surefire
familiarity ..
flashing bright on their
slow but firm
descent much like some
back on back
strobe light might drop ..
each falling
from a steady dribbling
faucet set
firm in stone and higher
even than
those glass ceilings that
I repeatedly
set for my good self
and then later,
became so famous for ..
oh’ yes, I am
quite sure, it was those
time drop
visitations that left such
an aftertaste of
saccharine and creosote
in their wake ..
still no one takes blame
for wrongs
found on bad walk street
these days
since each is as guilty as
the next ..
and of course I can’t be
seen eating
sweet peaches from a tin,
with a mouth
already full of both guilt
and regret ..
so again, I am reminded
of how precious
time has always been
yet without
my consciously realising it ..
Some will not see the light until it is time. Good piece;)
