In the waltzing circle
At the Satan's party
One stray butterfly
Tripped over the hourglass.
The wheel of time
Tipped into the fountain
Of Randomness.
The puzzle of timelines
Shattered to pieces.
In the world of people
The hours got tossed up.
Mixed up day and night,
Before and after.
The cracked paint
Of the old Matrix
Peeled off.
Leaving the world
Oh so naked.
So unashamed
In its brand-new nudity,
Leaving the heartbeat of fear
Slow, paced and hollow,
Blowing on our pale faces
Looking into the vacuum,
And watching it shatter.
And only the pulse of places
Continued turning on its axis.
Until on the other side
Of the breathing gap
Of the world's apnea
The beat re-started.
Reaching out
Through the intertiming
I can't feel you.
Please tell me
You'll be there
In time.
