Time’s slipping away,
I wish it would, longer stay,
and think be less rushed.

A hole in the ground,
could go anywhere I know,
look down there and go.

The rain ran away,
through spring it played everyday,
and I did like that.

It was refreshing,
cool and wet and everywhere,
like a good old friend.

The heat has drained me,
and I am not coping well,
I just want to sleep.

The moon’s looking good,
an half moon clear in the sky,
and bright in the night.

I am only here,
writing this until someone,
likes my tweet today.

It could be awhile,
as they never get noticed,
or even liked much.

My coffee gets cold,
the tension is intense here,
waiting for a like.

I sip my coffee,
it’s just right and the taste’s good,
I think I’ll have more.

Not a dickie bird,
not a comment, nor a like,
well, I am bigger.

Jonah ate a whale,
one spoon at a time they say,
but it sounds fishy.

I’m up with the lark,
though he didn’t show today,
but I’m feeling good.

I did some study,
I did some music writing,
and I did a lot.

A mug of coffee,
is there beside me waiting,
like a faithful pet.

Time is so funny,
without it, it’s bad, with it,
it’s hard to control.

Cars rumble past me,
unseen and dulled, they gone by,
random but often.

I’m counting the days,
to finish just one thing now,
a song or a book.
