One Time Only
Time is a passing fever of the senses
Pressing image into flesh, it burns
Swelters and freezes in place
Pales of star eruptions occur
Cartwheels, pinwheels
Churchbells, carousels
It passes as it turns back upon itself
Past buildings, eroding all it touches all
Echoing softly around the hollow corners
Of an eye, dying ceilings delirious blues
Ever watchful, never seeing one waiting
For one is only, another.
Poetry by Chaucer Whethers
