test of time
where do we go
once time stands still
like a flamingo preening
in shallow water
lost in endless thought
behold the eternal flame
trapped inside a frozen cave
indistinguishable from time
secluded like a dream
if only you could find
the formulaic language
of putting time in a nutshell
buried in the spring
by the keeper of the stars
may two thousand twenty-four
