Momentum
A broken wristwatch becomes a bracelet.
I prefer it that way,
For numbers to become decorations,
Illustrations, squiggles.
When time’s arms stretched and yawned
From a sundial's center,
How long did it take for someone to shudder
At the lateness of
The hour, the momentum and strength of shadows
Running the length of their leashes.
i love this.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful, especially the ending.
