Time is Running
Ever felt like you were running out of time?
Time is running and my heart is pounding.
I’ve got so many options and people with opinions.
So many directions but with different destinations.
Confused with whats right and whats wrong for me.
All of a sudden the wrong seems right and the right seems wrong.
My head is spinning like I’ve just gotten off of a roller coaster.
My body is shaking like I’ve just seen death pass by.
Time is running and my heart is pounding.
The fear is getting closer and my thoughts are getting tangled.
Life is so short that it self takes a life long to realize.
The clock is ticking and the tensions rising.
Time is running and my heart is pounding.
Its time to make a choice and to leave the rest to God.

Snacktime Sonata Challenge Winners
Well, your Snacktime Sonatas made us hungry, and that’s about the highest compliment we have. Food — taste, smell, sensation — is a powerful conduit to the past, to memories pleasurable and painful and sometimes bittersweet, a mixture of comfort and challenge. Congratulations to Penny Fuller for Sativa — it’s a first win for Penny — a hymn to the “secret, unbounded/freedoms” of fresh peas in the pod. The narrative voice of the poem doesn’t really want to be outside, but finds joy in the green things of the earth; this is a lovely work of resilience.
