ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD

By Birdbones



Time picks its teeth

With the bones of

Human endeavor


Devoid of form

Streaming boundless

Mercurial in appetite


Its shadow inescapable

Expiring arbitrarily

No encores chambered


A ruse in measure

As no more exists

Than ever has or will


Reliant on its passage

We live, we love

We hurt, we heal


Its taste for irony however

Insidiously

Pierces hapless souls


Moments spent living

Moments spent dying

Cruelly interchangeable


Infinitely entertained by

The zero sum

Of our existence
