29 april



let me pencil in
to check my calendar
the date’s still open
but the time is slipping by

the rosebuds—while ye may—
still a-flyin’, and all that

I’ve got to catch the next
before the last—

the shimmering arc of time
      twists, unfixed—

a rainbow trout unhinged
     uncaught, gleams, gone
     flash—

chased erased vanished—
time only floats away
