Sweep Second Hand

I can plan the
Contents of an
Hour, know its
Coordinates by
Clock and calendar

And tell where
Rain fell alive
On dust where
Dust traveled in wind.

I can see where
Rain ends, but
What an hour is,
Or instant, I can't
Tell, and understand
Eternity as well.

  2. Thanks Willie. My ideas sometimes inspire criticisms that include the eff-word. Good to hear this poem is solidly ineffable!
