Time

Time doesn’t exist 
history does certainly 
but not time 
not like it
used to exist 
time was like 
a muddy paddock
through which to
trudge a bayou
full of snakes 
and other creatures 
but now at
least with you 
time which always 
had been marked 
by its march 
has become little 
more less than 
prints in sand
washed to sea
