In search of time etc

For months now it is impossible: you try
to relax on the highway, play the accordion
without howling. In the dream the lake


always outshines you. It’s so profound,
so foxy. And you know there have been
years – around the corner the playwright


is nearly bald, spots of time are shags
over pages before they settle in your lap,

before they go dead with the weight.
