angular momentum

If I spin counterclockwise,
each turn robs the planet
of angular momentum
slowing its spin the tiniest bit
lengthening the night,
pushing back the dawn
giving me a little more
time here with you

-XKCD

and I, who flounder
in the timeless
space of triples ws,
think you and I have forever

Forever to ask,
Probe,
Mull,
Understand,
Enjoy

Granting,
Of course,
That you want to be around
That long
