A meditation on time and suffering

Posted on by

We could throw away all the clocks

and move freely through time,

get ahead of our sufferings

and swerve round them,

circle back and laugh.

Impotent suffering.

Fool.

But wouldn’t we then, even then

carry inside what we’d lost

and know it

and die?
