What is time

What is time

To a dog

Breathless timeless

Joy of odorous flesh

From far it stings

The encased brain

Using chemical songlines

Lifting heartbeat and melody

I dog

Don’t know when it came

If it came

I dog don’t know it

I act in response

To the lines of

Song the chemical riff

Dragging my eye to the morsel

I dog

Eat

There is no clock

No pattern that governs

I will keep leftovers

But I do not say it is for

Later

I am continuous

With my senses

I smell

I eat

I look

I do it
