the quiet
the trend lately is that life is simply getting in the way. i work so i can play, i play so i can forget, the in-between matter is shunned, and the routine is on repeat.
i miss my dad.
THEY say that “time assuages”,—
Time never did assuage;
An actual suffering strengthens,
As sinews do, with age.
Time is a test of trouble,
But not a remedy.
If such it prove, it prove too
There was no malady.
