Time flows backward

sorenbarrett

Time flows backward
gravity's stream reversed
guilt in rash words
taken back in a life rehearsed

Falling upward
leaning on echoes of stone
listening to one word
malignant seeds sown

Rain, rivers, ocean, clouds
circles up and down
wax wing shrouds
half smile, half frown

    Time flows backward
    gravity's stream reversed
    guilt in rash words
    taken back in a life rehearsed

    Dearest sorrenbarret this is so significant to me this week, I said something to my mother in law because she did something I didn't like, for me it was over after I said my piece but she is italian.lol all hell broke loose. I'm still alive though ๐Ÿคฃ

      Mother in laws are one thing, Italian is another put both togeather and you have something else. My mother in law was Italian as well but I was fortunate enough to be on her good side and she was a saint to me. Thanks for the read and review Teddy it is most appreciated.

                  You and your economy of words still getting the message across. Jealous.
