Ready or not:
The restless waters
Seep the rocks of mind
Clean the clocks of time
The present strains into past
What has been a climb
Now is far behind
Simple now, I see it now
Pinned to black-felt board
Ensconced in glass and framed
Tacked down like wings of butterflies
Latin names now verified
Fixed, for future looking back
The next thing now
A tangled trouble
Breaks the glass and bursts the bubble
Next is daring me to step
It’s tidiness elusive yet
“Ready or not here I come”
It taunts
Ready or not
