Time the spirit of change

TIME  –   THE SPIRIT OF CHANGE

                But God said to him: Fool!
                This very night your soul is required of you...
                Luke 12:20

Seek a column, where words align,
Not a burrow lost at its end, benign –

Where it speaks of fur for the brush so fine,
A squirrel’s charm outshines the sable’s design.

Forgive the irony; perhaps it fits,
In this “Arcadia of bliss,” where laughter sits…

A mouse darts through macram; and grain,
In a net, a dance, a whimsical game of gain.

(. . .)

Yet here, the brush for artistry is seized,
The old smoker lingers on, undeterred, unpleased –

Burrowed deep in poppies or "Mack,"
Oblivious still to the clock’s measured knack:

"Tick-tock. . .  Тick-tock. . . 
Тick-tock. . ."
