Rooted Within It
time besieged them
with an absence of regard
it pressed
upon every emotive nuance
controlling the colors
of thought's bleary resonance
a trumpeted version
of now
ponderously moving
its tiny seconds
to a later
whose cut comes undone
in a blister
i take its head
and whisper my name
to recall who i am
when it alights upon me
blistered in the wind
i stand rooted
within it
