It’s been so long since last I played times song.
A song descending and ascending and continuing on.
Propaganda taught me to know time.
Rather, I was taught what to think of her.
I cannot find rest in her,
For she is the awful insomniac.
I cannot avoid her,
For she is the persistent stalker.
Sometimes I forget she exist,
But then the hangover hits
And suppressed memories of her persist.
When I play Time’s song,
I cannot help but remember all I’ve done wrong.
She is a necessary evil in my mind.
At the same time she is kind.
She gives me a second chance
And opportunities to dance
Away the sorrows
Leaving them to be dealt with tomorrow.
It’s been so long since last I played times song.
A song descending and ascending and continuing on.
Beautiful. Intelligent.
Thanks Rachel! I enjoyed making this one.
Mad dope. The personification of time is what made this poem.
Thanks Erin! It was difficult to find a steady rhythm, so I’m still lacking that, but I thought I would make Time seem like a lover in some sense.
