the most valuable variable
how is it
time controls so much
to such lives are based around it
clocks charts phones all tell us when to be
you can't see it though
you can't touch it
your soul isn't based on time
yet every physical aspect is controlled by it
a little time means an accident or a normal day
love or hate
a burnt down house or a burnt toaster
and i just spent it to write this
the most valuable variable
the title came after i think its cool

Time omnipotent! Time has always been such a powerful symbol in art and I think that this poem approaches it well from its indefinable side.
"your soul isn't based on time" is a real interesting line--in a way time has an internal exisistence in situating events and experiences, but then, the soul is said to be eternal.
The most valuable variable is a great title, i think.
