Dragonfly Time is a poem I wrote one day walking around my neighborhood. There were a lot of dragonfly about and I got to wondering how they viewed time. It is a fun exploration of what it means to have so many eyes and how we understand and think about what we see.
There are seven stanzas. Each stanza, has four lines. This poem has meter, with each line having 8 syllables. The rhyme scheme is each line of a stanza has the same rhyme. While the structure of seven stanzas has been maintained as seven chapter breaks, each stanza has had its lines split-apart in order to preserve the intent (the pacing) of each line, and thus each line is given its own page; there may be instances, however, where managing the evolution of the poem in your mind, some lines have been split into multiple pages (making it so a chapter is not necessarily equal to the count of lines of a stanza).
