Lowercasemmmmmm

for a time machine

Through the clouds its whispers vague
Of forgotten tomorrows the muse does pay
And drill its personified lateral face
Into the ground lest the dust replace
The life walked was almost never ran
As water dripped from eyes raw
Things said and done in primal screams
How we sob and yearn for a time machine

(2013)
