moment.

The patrimony of a moment

In Time suspended:

To be caught unawares

In some ruthless hourglass, 

Scavenging for mercy

But only finding sand...

◄ Mulberry.

There's a visual here that is both terrifying and poignant of how we are trapped by time as it moves relentlessly on.

Sometimes I wonder why we created time! It seems to be elastic.
A satisfying moment of poetry Holden.
