Welcome to Time
I hold luck in my hand while failure bleeds through its crevices. 
 It all began with a capsule labeled 'Life'. This THING could have been 
 created through love lust or marriage. Rape is also a choice. 
 Grows and develops and drips while time sticks to my body, 
 while the clock ticks to the beat of my heart. Bones begin to rust
  and wrinkles become a deep canal or abyss. 
 
 But what if I flip it over? Will time become unstuck? 
 Will my heart rate slow? I hope my adolesant days come back around 
 where my skin was soft and eyes were brown. Not yellow. 
 Mother teach me of my fatherless childhood. The intelligence must open
  then I can open my hand. My luck is going to fall and the dream to 
 breathe in my success shall come true. The new life will put out 
 not a single excuse for the forty million other reasons for failure. 
 Shamefully it has slipped away and the time to turn back has been 
 cut clean. Sprinkle my remains in the Pacific so I can swim 
 in one of my savior's successes in the after life.
