a page out of time, misplaced
by fate, unearthed out of sequence
uncovered still, cannot be read

cannot be spoken, must not be opened
for now there beats the heart
of the unprepared… binding broken

loosened leafs unbound by time
published in requiems of choice
with no continuum in sight

en carpe diem’s plight it seems
not taken resolves past’s protection
seizing settles future’s possession

caught between time and chance
the page wrestles against
the eaves of the mind
settling in the crevasses
of mem’ry
…undisturbed

Undisturbed?

With this rustling of wind?

I think not...
