Bastard Time |
| Three dozen cycles, give or take a sum |
| The sum of that experience — how to keep running |
| O I know justice, it’s a birthright if you’re born right |
| And I know how handsome is that trick of the light |
| So don’t be mistaken in thinking I’ll do right |
| Given the chance to do wrong again and again |
| Summer romeos casing the park |
| By the uniform urinals of love’s rural province |
| O don’t you know time, with its petty vial of sands |
| Inscrutable face and merciless hands? |
| And don’t you know love? |
| It’s a whirlwind of feathers |
| Tickles you to your nethers and leaves a terrain of despair… |
| And I know when grief goes unchecked |
| There’s a kind of relief in the wreckage for the wrecked… |
| Weren’t you alone last time I saw you? |
| How do you keep running from the world and the war? |
| O I know young fathers who once were like soldiers |
| AWOL in flung places |
| Or without standing orders |
| Alarming approaches to time and it’s killing |
| No victimless crime again and again |
