Time

Time! What are you doing in my chest?
Get out! Your ticking has confused me.
Your ticking has silenced my heart!
No longer.
I unwind you.
I remove your numbers from your face.
I take the arrows and use them to pierce the lie you have told humanity.
Puncture.
Dissolve.
A mystery I solve.
I Am a sign of a brand new time.
It doesn’t tick or tock.

The mouse ran up the clock
The Clock struck One
And Down he run

I dismantle the clock
I smash the face with a rock
I bend the hands of time
I demand and live a new rhyme
I uncover the forsaken’s crime
And fashion a new way to be
Every breath a Now moment
We’re free

The numbers evaporate into the ether
The hypnotic tick tock goes away
In the silence I hear an old whisper
Exit and Exist
night fuses with day.
Clasp hands and celebrate the Way
In our dreams, we find what we pray

Is it the calendar that led us astray?
Have we captured ourselves?
Are we our own Stonehenge?
Have we fabricated our own decay
By delineating night from the day?

Time! Time.
You have served a purpose,
But I give you notice
Your lifespan ends right Now
For you have spun a pretty lie
That I with authority disavow
You will not stamp my ticket
Or dictate a thing called age
You will not line my face
Or put to sleep my inner sage.

I Am the rainbow bridge.
I unite the day and night.
I untie the knot of time
I walk the dreamscape without impunity
With every step I foster unity
I may have been born on the shortest day
But it reminds me that the dreams of sleep
Are bigger than the lies of time
Exit and Exist
Allow
Your heart hurts
I will heal it
I burn the sands of time
They become my looking glass
I am free.
