TIME'S SNOWMAN

The poet attempts
to say what

can not be
said.

Watches Time
manifest itself

in this
come&gone

tries to trap
it into words.

He sees where the sea
begins

to be the sky
the sky become the sea.

He lets the silence
surround him.

He lets the snow
cover him.

He becomes the sky's
snowman.

He becomes
Time's snowman.

Then he breaks out of
his snow covering

shivering
into words

a moon
his Anglepoise.
