if time were a tablet
would i take it?
and would i keep to the requisite dose?
would it be risking allergic reaction?
and side effects - what about those?

how much would be required to move me
forwards or backwards or not
just to keep the clocks quite stable
while i measure out how much i've got

could i be chancing addiction?
time without rehab, what then?
some sort of necessary intervention?
a 12 step program leading nowhere but when...
