He wandered in off a morning ledge, sat down beside me and asked, "Do you believe in time?"

I told him that I believed in time for coffee, sex and late night snacks, but, I didn't believe in clocks.

"Good!", he replied, "then you won't mind if I take your skillet-handled screamers and your carpet-sided countenance with me when I go?"

I told him, "as long as you close the door whenever you leave, you may take anything except the rose or the raven."

The door closed, and was immediately replaced by a 'No u turns allowed," sign, so, I guess he's gone for good.

Yet, at times, I'm not so sure!

Great writing.  I am so glad to read it and I turn green with envy because I am an incurable clock watcher.  I like the way that you think.

Your fist two lines just grabbed me, took me through the rest of the poem, which I thoroughly enjoyed. You have talent.

Welcome,
