I am Alarm
and I know special tricks
I’m able to
stop all clocks
from their ticks–
their two-timing tocks
can’t circle or click
when Alarm is around
the slow becomes quick
the quick pulls up short
and slows like a thick
fictional current
which in fact
–it is–
Since day into night
is all that must stick
dark into bright
wickless or wick
Alarm knows
that time flows
both ways, so splits
–the dif-fer-ence–
clapping bells
to transmit.

I chose time travel as my superpower, because of what the poem says. Time is a man-made concept–an illusion.

A great use of a superpower .. yay 🙂
I was going to write something about languages naturally, but nothing came out when i squeezed that tree…:) I am Babylon this morning. 🙂
Get it? Babbling…Babylon?
(one of my fave Bible stories, for all that the details are sketchy, anymore. that was what that Ziggurat break poem was based on…sketchy details!! lo lo lo)
