There are times as these
Times when the mind’s gig seems full
Heating beyond the highest temperature
And calling to a stop all body parts but more knowledge begs for place
II
There are times as these
When sleep dresses in a sexy apparel
And sits on a heaven far from human
Singing lullabies like a Satanic breed to taunt eyes begging for it
III
There are times as these
When time wears mute sneakers in the dust
And runs at its highest speed to a tiled place unknown
And wears heels to call for urgent attention in dire situations
IV
There are times as these
When nothing makes sense
And all thoughts fight for is the goal
When heart rebels in tiredness
V
There are times as these
Yes times as these
When nothing rhymes
And everything chimes
The only hope is in transiency
