Writing
Wring each day
in this way
helps to slow
down
time
Even so
it seems ridiculous to be
in our sixth month
Wasn’t it only just June?
Was that really a year?
Hang on!
I think it was two!
How could you do this to me?
How could I do this to you?

Thoughts
So much of what I write is based around time. Where it goes, how it flows. Is it a straight line or is it circular? Can I meet myself on the way back round or is everything now in the past? I have some thoughts but they could be a future book idea. For now, I will reminisce about our trip down the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok all those years ago.
