dips from the guardians of time



The idiot brigade boasted their wit
on banners that caught the wind
so as to propel their banter.

He --laid back as usual watching
the scurry rats pacing to
unknown and predictable paths.
She--anxiously vulnerable
thought not of time
but lingered in repose of thought.

meanwhile
another--
burns the roast--
cause the timer
was ignored--
no
it wasn't set
yeah--thats right.
it wasn't set
*
the guardians of time
hear not the mechanisms
that govern the ticking
the do not
spend time
winding it up
they know--- there is no time
by which to count
to live
they know--- time is of the essence
even if they do not know what that means.
