When Time Tripped
And after, there was Anna
Anna, I remember best
Best of all her better parts
Parts that dull the rest
It was all in Anna’s laugh
That colored listless days
Those days were wicked runners
I miss her little ways
Before the ones that followed
The lesser ones
That filled the bulk of time
Time tripped and turned to see
When Anna laughed with me.
