Timelessness

byRemec©

The day rushes by,
like so many before it,
but in a more immediate
and intimate manner,

I try to keep on schedule,
being Clockwise is one of
many minor OCD traits I
happen to possess,
but it it to no avail,

I am a white rabbit,
bemoaning my condition to
all who I pass while
speeding along to missed
appointments and undone
errands and chores.

I am a melted watch,
dripping over everything around
me and leaving precious
seconds here and there
until ennui has no hold on me
as there is no time
left.

Love!

A great sentiment with strong images to carry it along and smooth as silk to the last word! Neo's rec brought me here and I'm glad it did.

A few nitpicks:
1) I don't think you need the comma at the endmore...

I like it a lot

I definitely do the same, often anxiety fueled. I have images of Salvador Dalí's painting and Lewis Carroll's book in my head with this.
