The hours of the night pass my window like theives, who come to prance outside to laugh and amuse themselves with me. They stare into my solice attempting to shackel my mind, so they can have what lays my sacred completion I keep inside. Another price that I must pay to stand witness of hours pain, as paper and pen shall meet and the hours shall have what they seek. |

Michael, in this poem you've given time (the "hours") a dark and ulterior motive...an interesting perspective. I enjoyed it! ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
