TIME-BOMB by MINA LOY

Poet Analysis

First Line: THE - PRESENT - MOMENT
Last Line: MOMENTUM



The present moment
is an explosion ,
a scission
of past and future
leaving
those valorous disreputable ,
the ruins,
sentinels
in an unknown dawn
strewn with prophec.
Only the momentary
goggle of death
fixes the fugitive
Momentum
