it's so hard to feel
when i don't even have time
to think
tie my shoes
make a phone call
these little details
can affect a day
just one letter
just one accident
can affect everything that happens for the rest of the
twenty four hours
you have
i have no time to
jump
or call a friend
no time to sit down and have a nice long chat with someone smarter than I
I don't have time
to tie my hands behind my back
since i already did that
a while ago
it doesn't matter
time is relative
so the smart say
and so is everything else
but I'm running out of it
I'm running out of sanity
and moments
and time to fuck up
now it's time
to balance
on
a tight rope
for if i don't
I'll
get bitten by the
alligator that is
called
ridicule
...but
others just call him detective Aaron smith

Won't pretend to understand the last line, but I liked the poem a lot.
"no time to sit down and have a nice long chat with someone smarter than I" was my favourite line. It almost felt like two poems (split after the 'it doesn't matter' line).
Yeah, time is a bitch, too.
