Intangible Free-fall





Falling like raindrops nobody can keep
Tick-by-tock tempo of soul-rending sweep
Arabesque ocean of deep unto deep
This is the way of moments

Slipping like silver of mist over moss
Tick-by-tock triumph with tick-by-tock loss
Through folded fingers they vanish because
This is the way of moments

Melting and molding in synchronized breath
Leaving no trace of its birth or its death
Never a footfall on highway or heath
This is the way of moments

Miniscule measure with mammoth import
Business and pleasure cajole and cavort
Leading to that final, full-fledged Report
This is the way of moments
