T.I.M.E

Just a small piece that came to me!

Towers crumpled neatly in pages stacked within concealments,

Imagination runs and runs but never catches up with life,

Member’s arrows pulse on without interlude so wretched,

Empty quarters leave hearts dense in forthcoming deportments.

There's a great deal more you could add to it ... its the great creator, the initiator of it all, the nurturer, the deceiver, liar, rescuer and savior. It is but the biggest thing we can ever come into contact with as a concept in our lives and then again ' do you have the time? I forget my wristwatch.

ha do any of us really!

I love the depth gone into of only 4 simple letters. Its put together very well and i find it very deep. The imagery is so vivid. Well done!

[Tomás Ó C..]

Nice acrostic... indeed imagination never keeps up with life if one is living ones life!

[Pollai]

You took on a concept everyone thinks about but wrote a rather original piece. It's short but its deep. I really enjoyed the read and, "Imagination runs and runs but never catches up with life", so true haha

[unsavable_soul]

This must be a trap, cause' I am all caught up in it's sheer truths. One question though I don't get this line could you enlighten me?
"Member’s arrows pulse on without interlude so wretched"
Very nice piece.

The arrows are symbols of the hands of a clock and how they are ever moving forward regardless of life or situation - never breaking. thank you!

[unsavable_soul]

TIME... One summer, I removed my wristwatch and did not put it back on until the following summer. I was aware of its absence at the oddest moments. I now wonder why I did it. Perhaps I thought that by discarding the most obvious keeper of time I could, myself, step outside of it. It was an idiot's thought and it was then that I became determined to pursue life as though I was indeed an idiot. I ask you now, quite plainly, have I or have I not succeeded? ~ Rating[98.6] ...Please enter only digits/100.

Time is one of the most fascinating constructs to portray in a poem. I enjoy reading poetry that makes it its centerpiece. A thought provoking piece.

I was wondering the other day what it might be like to live without the concept of time. Like I imagine animals to live. In the moment; eating, sleeping, f*****g, defecating... Would it be possible to add thinking to the list without adding in a sense of past/present/future? Could we marvel at a sunset without comparing it to past events or anticipating it in the future? Enjoyed your words as always my friend. :)
