Angles by Adam Parry
There are angles back to you
like when the Earth reverses.
Time twitches impossibly backward.
Somewhere your hand still stretches out for mine,
but when I touch, it decays away.
Is there no way to turn back time, but by memory?
The scientists try but just get confused,
while lovers regret and just get the blues,
but if by some co-ordinates we’ve all forgot
time lingers for lovers
and whispers at fools.
I like this - 'while lovers regret and just get the blues'. Maybe in dreams we can revisit the past as time is experienced differently then.
