Time works very slowly
when watched
it comes about
silently observing
the one who calls it out.
It's those furry eyeballs
rimless eyewear too
frowning through creation
we've been dropped into.
Time the ghost of everything
here to bring us down
needs to be reminded
it can be lost
unbound.
A ship without a mooring
dancer needs a date
child playing forever
outdoors till very late.
"I lost track of time" she said
her eyes smiling so sweetly
as I said
"I missed you too"
"what time has it been lately?"
