.
I wrote a poem
postulating the end
of the familiar.
.
I wish I had not
written the poem
because every time
I read it, I think,
this is a possible
future.
.
From such meanderings
I discover this poem is what
I use to use to measure
real time.
.
At such times my
pulse is a finger pointed
at the unfamiliar.

A bold rendition of primitive
A bold rendition of primitive man in a state of panic. Bold...and I love the word 'meanderings'. One of those words I keep on my 'favorites list', although I have never actually used it in a poem, and maybe once in real life...if ever. Always a joy to read your work.
...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."
"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
See!
Now you gotta write the poem entitled "Meanderings" to take that puppy out for a spin. Like aged wine, a word can develop all kind of great flavors on a shelf if kept at the right temperature. incredibly glad you enjoyed the write ~~A~~
