Teaser
The Grid
On Zoom
we talk of endless skies
and starry nights
and endless love
and endless trudges
on sands of time
when clocks on walls
just melt like wax
and mock the shadow of the sun
across the verandah
through a mesh of steel
we talk of endless stretch of blue
from gold to vermillion and black
how effortless is the transition!
I wonder as I watch a second melt and drip
when I unZoom I see
my endless skies
in grids
