Time is edging closer
and my heart is aligned
with his ticking.


The hum of electricity,
the tapping of the heat,
these little sounds,
all trying to compete

But my attention is elsewhere,
planning on this line,
thinner than a blade of hair.
You wouldn’t even know it’s there,
like me,
though I’m not a wallflower,
just a face with a name.

I’m calling, watching and seeking out your game.

    Playful piece. It’s pretty neat how when you’re fixated on something, all the background noise and other distractions don’t seem to really matter.
