Greedy Time-Sucker
it keeps whooshing past
even when the nothing seems to change
like all the change got sucked into
a huge concentration that knocked us out
and now there's not enough to go around
what are march, april, and may?
they are just names on an old agenda
markers of how long we've been here
vestiges of normalcy we cling to
when in honesty, it's all just COVID
that keeps gulping down the sand
undeniably still streaming
into its waiting maw
