Donating Time

 day

startled into
form, breath
into syntax, a
viola out
shouts a
fire
engine, tornadic
torquing just
to speak
while
words form
or knot
together, time
like that, and
we be
come grey
clouds
with soon and
some for
principles, we
saw the flow
ers floating
on the river
dropped
from the space
of mention
in time, all
the years
together
composed
in breath, we
even see
a tree
a way
