Nightmare

Now I am Half. - a poem


A bit of the Earth fell off from our place
Snapped in too
Fell into the sea.

Except we did not hear the swish of the waves
Nor ever did we see the wash of its tale.
So far from there we did not look back.

Except to see as more bits did cave.
Whilst we did run as fast as the March Hare
Driving her car without any bloody care.

Oblivious to please
Only one did we save
A youth with promises to keep

That soon all harm would be repaired
Forgotten in the amnesia of youth
Whilst we who had a care

Remember it all:
A bit of the Earth fell off from my face
Snapped me in two
And now I am half.
