A Moment in Time

 

Dimensions of time where the

venue is fractional 

Heavy bombers drone to distant targets

in a darker world of expectancy

Lives adjacent unconnected

caught in an act never repeated

Church bells hold their silence

pensive for the invasion of evil

Then peels of chimes to announce arrival

Days lived on the hoof of uncertainty

rumours of disquiet subvert the heart

Constant incessant movement

out of step with past tranquility

Grieving hearts and hearts of love

join hearts which beat in fear

A violent squall encompasses all

indivisible yet in a mystical union

Lonely souls swarm as birds take flight

together safety a mere illusion

No escape save confusion and fear

in a dimension wrought from nought

as a harvest supper is shared by all
