#1988 - clepsydra

clepsydra

falling water

ekphrastic for Barbara Árnason’s ‘Icelandic Waterfall’

 

 

time’s caught but only so far as we see

it pools here, just for the record

 

            on the wall, as if the world

time has arrived at the foot of a page

 

             etched in

like the circle alive to spread from now

like finger fallen to its fact

 

splash moss, cling cliff

 

there’s shade so sun, a curtain cast

 

the day there all along

            to witness

the trouble of no time at all
