Mind matter rat-tat-tatting
rushing, pushing, clock on the run,
responsibility wails.
Destiny calls
and the car pool cometh.
Screen door creaks wide
to reveal obstinate lingering stars
amidst frowning moon faces.
Stretched to attention
I remain oblivious
to humid air assaulting my face
in discontented slaps.
Mind matter rat-tat-tatting
rushing, pushing, clock on the run,
until a graceful nudge
of warm light hovers
next to my shadow pulsating
with daybreak tremors.
I never saw it coming.

Reminds me of rat tat tat on the drums! How life is moving so fast, before our eyes! Nice one Jo!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jo. This was a very interting and mysterious write.
