Licensed To Linger

Licensed To Linger

written by: A J Wilson

 

In the underground
beneath low skies,
holograms move
to the sidelines, and,
within this circularity
time revolves backwards
we become untracked shadows
of our former selves,
chromatic automatons
licensed to linger
never sensing the tragedy,
never detecting the urgency,
and so, time moves on
spinning the world backwards
