time says no by Mary Frances Spencerwhining excuses
procrastination unacceptable
not enough to go
around
too much to do
swamped slammed
all anxieties rising
oceans swell
and sweep
us shifting grains
sands
constantly pull
magnetic
dare us to stick
to
yes

Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 04/13/09 at 03:43 PM "dare us to stick to yes" - indeed! I like the use of oceans and sands and that magnetic pull. |
