"But I want to be a good poet / And would like everyone to know it / Too: how about you?"

Time Never Tells Until it is Time

 

I am out of town

Am not anywhere

Neither up nor down

Neither here nor there

Neither smile nor frown

 

To care or not to care

Accept or reject?

Devoid of affect

As I dance with despair

 

But I want to be a good poet

And would like everyone to know it

Too: how about you?

 

I think this is all I have left now

Believe all the rest has been taken away

And know this is my last chance somehow

To find any peace at the end of the day

If not peace perhaps at least I can do well

 

But nobody knows and only time will tell

And time never tells until it is time

So I do all I can and I try like hell

A fool who dies by love and lives by rhyme
