Chronic
an illness of time
there's no escaping
time is for always
even a clocks unnecessary
if I read the sycamore tree
learn by heart its changing seasons
I recognise time
as a play of shadows
a quality of light
and time mounts up
compounded interest of days and nights
whatever else the morning brings
I can be sure of hours and minutes
the tick-tocking of illness
relentlessly
