Minute (2024 challenge day 31)

Folder: 
2024

wait a minute what’s a minute

count me out and leave me dry

kaleidoscope the ways I’m sodden

never let a minute pass

 

light it up and you’ll be stranded

fire leaves as fire starts

island you like it’s a birthday

shredded screaming not your own

 

tell a story light a candle

pictures of that long-dead past

memory of mustang sailboat

cache holds what you’ve never loved

 

wild summer comes a crawling

down the street you’ll never see

petrified you bring me closer

silent broken island steam

 

now that I know better

I will never lose my mind

wait a minute waste a minute

watch you climb up to the view

 

phantom limb slip forward

catch me if the ocean’s dry

wait a minute lose a minute

echo lonely

find an end
