Not Time

Moments painted on
the canvas of time

Crackle underfoot –
ice sugared grass

Cloud’s moist lips –
mountaintop glistens

Sparkling squeak –
last dish clean

Ice-water sunrise –
scorching desert trek

Glance into an eye –
swallowed by a soul

Blue flash –
bulb’s spirit set free.

All holes in time
drifting endlessly
