With these words
may the time pass
gently, this sentence
is long and may
continue for some
time but inevitably,
eventually, will stutter
towards some kind of
an end, which frankly
will be a relief, yet
I havge noever so hesitated
to draw a full stop as here
in the post office queue with
metal arms as a maze
and enclosure -
waiting impatiently even
though the wait
be a necessity and
I don't know where you are
but if you wished the moment
to linger you would not have
got this far, and
feet tap and
hands clap on ringing bars
as people chatter about
reciepts and stammer
apologies and
this was intended as a
metaphor but has got
off track somewhat, though
things tend to don't they?
and once written
you cannot go back.
