immersed

*Best read sideways on mobile devices

The day is longer than it seems.
Perhaps it’s just me waiting for it to be over.
The clock spins like a whirlpool,
washing away the day’s responsibilities.
Down the hole goes time,
flushed to the center of now.
Lost 
behind the soul in the center of the mind.
Blind to the present of the moment.
No notice of the sun’s traverse across the sky.
Simply here,
immersed
beneath the things that fly.

  1. Lovely reflective poem, deeply philosophical about our existence and the passing of time. I like these lines very much:

    Down the hole goes time,
    flushed to the center of now.”
