The Time


We forgot the time some time ago. 
Amnesia struck. A sudden blow
kocked us back sharp as sun slapped 
across the face of morning. 
Without warning 
we just forgot the time. 

Though the clock ticked days, 
though our eyes grew glazed, 
we continued unphased 
till all of our parts 
(including our hearts) 
were sore. 

We grabbed for more. 
We fell on the floor. 
Bent, rent, spent; 
time came and went 
but we had forgotten the time 
some time ago. 

We dropped, 
stopped, 
surprised realized 
it was well past five. 

Knocked back, 
a sharp slap 
we remembered the time.
