Time

I had some lines this morning and
I forgot them.

I did have this one on the time element:
You're young.
You have the world as your oyster,
and what do you do?
You look in the mirror
and see your acne.

Time passes, and you see the
door you just passed through in the tunnel
and of course it's locked so you can't go back.

You glance in the mirror and
the acne is gone,
but now look if you have time.

The lines,
the wear and tear
of this determined
piece of work.
