Fifteen Thirty Six

To try and catch a train
The bus delayed again
Static traffic
Birthing mild road rage violence
She sits and weeps
Hears ghosts upon the streets
Deadened seconds
In a car horn silence

At fifteen thirty six theres just no time for you and me
At fifteen thirty six theres no time
Theres no time
Its sleeping in a time void

At fifteen thirty six theres just no time for you and me
At fifteen thirty six theres no time
Theres no time
Its dreaming in a time void

Somewhere beyond the veil
Some thunderous vapour trail
Sold for gold
She cashes in on floating ashes
Blowing along the platform
Debris caught in autumn storm
Squalling, falling
Charon gives passage

Forgotten lines of abstract verse
Unsung and unrehearsed
Flattened patterns
On railway carriages
Oilstains cloud her mouth
Whistleblowing heading south
Void deployed
to ersatz marriages

At fifteen thirty six theres just no time for you and me
At fifteen thirty six theres no time
Theres no time
Its sleeping in a time void

At fifteen thirty six theres just no time for you and me
At fifteen thirty six theres no time
Theres no time
Its dreaming in a time void

J’adore le procrastination
