40 Minutes

Contributed by Man_On_High on Thursday, 12th May 2005 @ 10:50:59 PM in AEST
Topic: drugabuse



I' got 40 minutes to write a line
a simple moment caught in time...
a mis-communicated thought,
something simply I cannot!

Don't have time to see it through,
to write this down is all I do-

margin not for error here
thinking fast
and seeing clear,

manifest beyond my fear...

shakin' now like srpent's end
"margin not" I must rescind-


I ask you not to hold me too
when I said:
"won't see it through"

My 40 minutes burning fast,
wanting it to longer last...
knowing soon my 40 minutes
will be in the past.

M.O.H.
