In the Interim
© 2009 Vernon Miles Kerr
In the interim between dark and dark
We scrape, scratch and endure,
Assuming import.
As the interim narrows to a slit
we scramble to gather up
Shreds of legacy,
Hoping they will live on
In the interim of others.
Would that we rather leave
Shreds of relevancy.
But alas, those others’
Interms are narrowing too.
