Harriet Zinnes


When/Then

If the when becomes the then
and then recedes,
has time stopped its functioning
and allowed chaos to command?


Time is, will be, was and is evermore,
and yet and yet
when chaos endures even time's universe
time itself is a wingless bird
without motion, without identity.
