Blinded to the time

by Alice   Oct 13, 2018


The sun was setting.
Circling around,
drooping over us
to fall
without a sound.
And we strained up-
blinded to the time
cursing all wonder neath
the hooded sky.
For it was
already dawn-
already quite
darkened
in the sleepless night
of smog and scorn
and overdues:
of days piling over you.

    ^ love this bit, nothing more scornful than trying to get to sleep.
    Nice write.

    I love how you described time here. I haven’t written a poem this short and this would be a good example for me. Great work.
