Time Warp

Time Warp
Sometimes I find myself
Wallowing, wondering, wandering
Floundering
In a time warp

All the clocks in my house
Inconsistent
Minutes differ from room to room
On certain days an hour can pass
With nary a move of the clock

So many hours are spent reminiscing
Photos, especially, touch my heart
A familiar snapshot can ??
Memory overload
Melancholic flash backs
Drive me to the past

Without skipping a beat
I’m yanked to the future
Wondering where I am going
So cliché – but so true
What do my tomorrows hold
Will my anticipations be met
Or trampled

This rubberband existence
Of yestertimes and the unknown
Cannot be tracked
By even a crystal ball
And I find myself lost
Unable to ground myself
Find myself
Enjoy myself
In the here and now
