Writer's Block: The Death of Time


No one watches

Hands ticking seconds

Or minutes passing

We look at screens

While crossing traffic

While sitting in an office

Or talking with a face.

No one notices the things

Caught by the eye

The fleeting moments

The fragment pieces

That fit together

To make a life.

You can immortalize minutes

You can put hours on display

But what context does it have

Thrown into the vast morass?

The last nine years have happened

So sayeth the clock

No one looks at the clock anymore

Time has died

And I mourn its death.
