LSI-02   The Unforgiving Minute

My 'Caviar to the General'

My 'Pearls before Kine'

Essentially ephemeral

Ridiculous-sublime

Intended to amuse

Delight and embrace

Perhaps at times confuse

With riddles or some trace

Of ancient echoed rhythms

Or long-forgotten tones

Or some obscure allusions

Like water-tumbled stones

A flash of light in darkness

A wave or fleeting smile

If you should feel a tingle

This minute was a mile.
