Always haunted by obsession
stealing bits of time.
From the pockets of many mirrors
hunted by the rhyme.
Find me lurking in the shadows
grasping at the purse.
My future self ever surprised
living with his curse.
For his arm reaches forward too.
Stealing bits of time.
(My poem as part of a collaboration with Bryen Kurdst - our interwoven piece below.)
Stealing Time.
When the days turn dull and gray, hunted by the rhyme:
recompense at their expense, from the pockets of many mirrors.
Always hunted by obsession (aches that echo long ago,)
time to pay them debt collectors, no change.
Find me lurking in the shadows where their bones start to decay.
My future self ever surprised, living with his curse.
Make a landfill in a canyon, wasting.
For his arm reaches forward too, grasping at the purse.
They invested in the past, but the future\'s here at last
and they\'re choking on the interest, slowly.
Stealing bits of time.
