Not Trying To

       Time has it's revenge but revenge seems so often sour. Wouldn't we all do better not trying to understand, accepting the fact that no human being will ever understand another ........

State of Siege

You Cannot Conquer

But all the clocks in the city

Began to whirr and chime

O' let not time deceive you

You cannot conquer time

In the burrows of the nightmare

Where justice naked is

Time watches from the shadow

And coughs when you would kiss
