Dare I question the source
power source
of our hour gained?
Did I beg/borrow the extra hour?
Fair traded from spring time?
Lacks ad valorem tax
on minutes retained?
Now ours to spend
wasting bonus time
reading writing slumbering
before dawn hours descend?
Time like a stream
soon bears us all away
memorable moments escape
like a dream
as darkness turns to day.
Time can’t be saved
nor reserved
stored packed preserved.
Relentlessly-on ticks the clock
tick tick tick
and even takk!
Especially that --
that gratitude/attitude
prayer praises phrases passing
in sleepless night
using abusing
disposable seconds/minutes
within the visiting hour.
