Sometimes
a space is needed
to rest
to reset
to refuel.

A time
for going to separate corners
and taking a break.
A chance for the round to end
to put a period on the sentence
and start afresh.

Sometimes
you need to get out of it
and recoup your thoughts
reboot your soul
reassess your beliefs.

Eventually
everyone needs to take time off
before restarting
and whaling on each other once again.

Time in.
