kinders watch closely as the sand slips away.
—
‘the sand in the hourglass runs from one compartment to the other,
marking the passage of moments with something constant and tangible.
if you watch the flowing sand,
you might see time itself riding the granules.
contrary to popular opinion,
time is not an old white-haired man,
but a laughing child.
and time sings.’
an encore can only last so long
eventually the stage is empty.
after an up and down week
bob seger, in today’s paper,
had just the right message.
getting used to being back on a school schedule.
kinders arrive today!

for time travel
with me
but has not come up
with a return formula
as of yet.
he even made me my very own copy.
i love the cover
and hopefully
everyone’s copy looks like this.

while signing-in at the salon
i asked the receptionist
what the date was
to which she replied,
“oh, let me look. it changes every day. this keeps happening.”
(not ironically)
i nodded in agreement and finished signing in.
