The Time Is Not Right

Buddy knew someone hated him

With such a passion, he couldn’t begin to

Assuage that distain

Wipe away their pain.

Maybe start again.

No, that time was gone.

Now, they were time’s pawns.

Stuck in time’s loop

They hung with that group

Acting so astute

That they read time wrong

Through opinions so strong

They can’t see the hour hands moving.
