Featured Review

Its brevity comes across as profound. I quite like this, it's quick and jaunty in rhythm, yet not in meaning.

I think you've lost somebody, a wife or girlfriend, to mortality [I read a few of your other pieces]. If so, I'm sorry that it happened.

Good write.
The lay out works well to make each word have impact.

p.s.
"time has past" - is this a play on words, or should it be 'passed'?
