As the title of the book suggests, the poems in it are largely concerned with the passage of time and the assortment of expectations and challenges that come with it. Our personal histories are not segregated in memory, but are constantly interrupting the continuity of the present, both consciously and unconsciously. And no one can live up to the demands of time without failure of some sort. But there is also humor here, which comes to our rescue in the form of lines, poems, and scenarios that make us look at ourselves from a comic perspective. If failure is one natural result of our dealing with time as adults in society, humor gives us a way of seeing our failures and successes in a wiser light.
