ANALOGOUS TIME

ANALOGOUS TIME

The future began as a dream

of light, darkness took

its own time being born.

Digital time had not yet been in-

vented, clocks woke late,

out of breath,wondering

what to with time

without hands

or faces.

ANALOGOUS TIME, ii

The necklace of the night—

smoke scattered light

across the sky

Meteors dreamed

of the fire

trapped in the sun.

The future began as a dream

of light, darkness took

its own time being born

Time had not yet been in-

vented, clocks of time

woke late, out of breath,

wondering what to do

with their hands

and faces.
