In The Second Second Of Forever

 


All hail Bob Calvert, Space Rock Supremo:


In the sixth second of forever

I saw your mouth whispering something I could not hear

In the fifth second of forever

I thought of the vermilion deserts of Mars

The jewelled forests of Venus

In the fourth second of forever

I could remember nothing that I did not love

In the third second of forever

I thought of rain against a window, I thought of the wind

In the second second of forever

I thought of the pair of broken shades lying on the tarmac


In the first and final second of forever

I thought of the long past that had led to now

And never... never... never... never


Space Rock Forever,

LSP
