If I could save time in a locket, I would wear it around my neck and sail the seas. Thus being immortally known as the father of time travel.

This is not the mentality
     by which we were schooled -
This sense of nothing
     solid about ourselves -
Nothing permanent, nothing stable
     to lovingly cleave to -
That "I" is only a
     transient idea of "I"

Hot summer ending
In late evening listening
To loud Patsy Cline

just save your goodbye
i don't want to hear a lie
escapes from your mouth
