Waiting for 1:30

January 9, 2024

Waiting for 1:30.
The clock with lizard feet
and long toe nails crawl
across the sand face of time
inching.

Time has a way of stretching out
when it's a fun thing waiting for ...
stretches out like long taffy being pulled.

If I turn my back on time,
it will spin faster.

So I turn my back,
but keep peeping over my shoulder.
