borrowed time

the communal intermissions involved within risky cheating and self-gratification

it makes me immediately convulse and groan from impulse without satisfaction

consistently tenacious, time dominates the world like so many hopeless dreams

as life dwindles chasing down the hours, we delay all pleasure for some lucky schemes

in a vice of events we stumble into the obligation at something close to light speed

limitations always hunger until the very last seconds eventually recede

just accept that time commands and is the absolute emperor of mankind

yesterday my neighbor asked me, with a sheepish look, if he could borrow some time

so I gave up my watch and we changed our respective roles

nothing is as painful as an interlude consumed when a church bell tolls
