so much time
Just to sit in the bath
and be nothing
be no one
Just the melting of a candle
centre sinking
sides slipping
a reminder of something like time
I lie still
not waiting
it's nothing like waiting
Ideas come
I resist the urge to pick up my pen
or let the cat in
or add a little more hot water
The water is cooler than my skin now
like the silence at the end of a record
And time
how there is just so much of it
even in this last word.
