MOMENTS

Bicycling down the road

I see a man whistling

"The time," he says:

“pointing to his broken watch”

‘Only a moment’ I say

To:

Deliver a child

Die a horrible death

A bomb goes off

Lose thousands of dollars

(at a casino)

Bake a cake

Procreate

Run a marathon

Walk a mile

Take a picture

Develop a picture

Make coq au vin

Pull a trigger

Drape a saree

Post a letter

A few moments, really.

Moments that make up a lifetime
