the Great Dwindler,
is not lazy,
never tires,
sustains its pernicious assault
against the aging man.

Time,
the Great Dwindler,
is not lazy,
never tires,
sustains its pernicious assault
against the aging man.

Was that the wind
A tempest blew,
Or ‘stead,
Vestiges of my life
Gone whooshing by?

Cast me ashes to the sky
When done my time to be,
As the winsome butterfly,
Free

Indigo
stains the aged parchment
there, left bold,
the canon
chronicles all my days,
all their Nights
