Chronometer • Poem • NN


There is a chronometer

in my heart

a metallic bauble

depicting the ticks & the tocks

of my life’s moments

glimpses of my fleeting fantasies

Like a puppet duckling

I dance & waddle

at the movements of this chronometer

writing songs throughout

& all the way

through it

before I normalize

into my natural self

who is not a puppet duckling

but a human.
