Time

By: Briana Wasil

How do I put pen to paper,

Fingers to keys,

Support a voice without a mouth

All within the allotted time boundary?

There’s only a number of days prescribed

Before the clock stops ticking

And I’m no horologist

With a skilled gift for precision.

But, I wish I was so that I could lay out time,

Fulfilling all the destinies according to my visions.
