*time Murder, A Guilty Confession Poem by Rommel Mark Dominguez Marchan

Imprisoned me to death
or a double-life unbailable sentence

I am pleading guilty
I have murdered the precious times
eversince

I am a needless slumberer
an hour waster
a clock watcher
a frivolous talker
employed in irrelevant employments
a day squanderer
a false-hope wisher
a luck seeker for a job abroad
a jack in few trade collector

I have acquired trial and error skills
a hit and miss casual careers

I am loitering as self-acclaimed explorer
and keep writing impossible to publish anthology

I am shifting various courses
moving one place to place

I am spilling out all crystal fountain of my youth

I am spoiling much of them

Still at this very moment
I am regretting
I keep on wishing
how could I live
them once again
without time-wasting?

Those precious moments
that meant to be spent
wisely but once -

I am now voicing out my
guilty feelings within
under oath!
