please remove the clock /
and it’s alien arms /
for a want of a drip /
to mock seconds on the forehead /
the tap should receive a torrent /
not percussion from a dead star /
still hosting diminished living room rotations /
lift my name from any envelope /
to frame generations /
harvesting under a satellite’s direction /
there be the second moon /
reflecting a hidden burn /
another time waits, for now /
poised for its end
