Time again

   Time licksskin of tomorrow;lingers on the lips: here destiny’safraid to takethe fall. Memories surfacewind across waterrippling my surface bending sleepto somnambulance we are comingwe are going.  Midday sunscorches, empties;thoughts rectify the guilt  Time’s left mestranded; honedto shred of former fire. Water to waterthis island sweatsvoluptuousness fruit tumble fromheavy tree & the fishleap like silver circlets of life. Time is allI’ve lost, yet stillin dreams I’m seventeen,waiting to beginagain.
