Trickle

I thought that if I wrote each day

maybe time would slow to a trickle

It did not happen

Maybe time is fickle or

maybe time does not exist?

All I know is that I write

and each day

the sun rises and

the sun sets and

each is a gift

a glorious gift

Trickle

Thoughts

I often return to this idea of time not existing. I know it is problematic but I like the idea that everything is happening all at once.
