Skipped Beats
June 12, 2011
Little tiny moments,
Those insignificant nothings.
What purpose do they leave
Such mere seconds of the day?
Who would even notice
If those seconds had a substance.
Should each beat be kept under siege?
Which trifles serve to slip away?
But what good comes from lack of focus
A disregard for labeled nothings?
That grow like larvae into locusts
And might turn into something?
Never stretch those petty gaps
Into piled waste that trails the past.
