Warp & Woof from Scribbled Line by Moe Reen

Time it went so quickly
Time it slipped right by
No time for reminiscing
No time for hugs goodbye

I say I’ll write a letter
With words that feel like touch
But I’m scared
Of being all too much
And still not quite enough

Now time it moves so slowly
I try to match its pace
I’m living in dog year time
Stuck on one long dog eared page

I watched the last magnolia drop
I watched an empire fall
I watch TV til my eyes hurt
I watch shadows grow on the wall

Now I’ve been bickering
With grandfather clock
And I’ve been whispering
With grandmother moon

She says we’re just moments
Dancing round and around
Like planets in orbit
A wheel turning king

Don’t you see?
It’s coming into view
I’m tumbling into you

Time, it doesn’t happen
Time is what we are
A vastness marked by pastness
The future in star-dusted palms

I felt a tugging on a thread
And then I came undone
You were there on the other end
Where skeins of geese
And causes are spun

See I’ve been buttoned up by notions
About where and when you are
Til our warp and woof revealed itself
As the single line that we are

So there’s no need to say,
“I’ll see you soon”
Cause you’re with me, now,
And now, I’m with you

Don’t you see?
It’s coming into view
I’m tumbling into you
