Chronology
by Annette Goggins
So much depends
upon
the whims of
wayward
fate. Clotho
weaves the cloth
of eons, while
Lachesis pulls
the threads of
destiny.
If they are taut, then
tragedy.
If they are slack, then
levity.
Then with cosmic
scissors
Atropos slices
the lines, which
as before
drew us
inexorably
forward,
toward, an
inevitable end.
The promise
withdrawn.
Meanwhile, ever /
elusive
time, consigns our
consciousness,
to the
Abyss.
