It’s absolutely essential

it can even be your friend,

and it’s right there with you

when you start or when you end.

 

It can even surprise you

often yeilding a treasure,

like sands through the hourglass

time is but an increment of measure.

 

It can work against you, too

breathing down your back,

it keeps on running

even when you’re way off track.

 

But, if you breathe life into it

it will steal your pleasure,

like sands through the hourglass

time is but an increment of measure.

 

I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back

surprisingly deep

surprising only because the form is so hallmarky,
sorry man, my personal opinion.
cheers,

Ideas of soup opera and yes time is a vast subject.

always marching to the front of our minds and fleeting before it is used properly. good for the parts,like repairing watches,so to can be poetry a piece inb the making I have a profile full ,still they are a value binb concept.
