Listen for the syntax of time,
invisible hands winding
the striking clock, awakening
the sleeper as each hour
reveals its cove of secrets.
Daytime rolls in like
an avalanche, illuminating
the by-roads of consciousness.
Listen for the scent of present,
the sound of non-occurrence,
the sixty small silences of
each minute.
Time blusters through the hours
like the wind through naked branches,
yet the present may happen at any
moment, the chilling loneliness
of your absent self replaced by
a sense of now and the sweet
epiphany of peace.
