What Time Is It?

 

down through the opening it falls

those grains of sand,

time marking time marking time,

nobody knows the time,

no body cares for the time,

yet it marks our passage

we are told when to start and stop,

neither point is ever our choice,

we are the heories of time

and the losers of time because

we have not learned to control it,

it passes us by regardless of of cares

listens not to our memories or

the stories they have told to generations,

time moves forward relentlessly,

we could care less about its passage

or the time that it keeps about us;

is the time known by anyone?

our sons and daughters

family and friends and some

oof our neighbors wonder what

we are doing with the time we have

as we spend it carelessly and

without consideration for its brevity,

we measure everything by time

it never stands still for reflection

and we never care what it does

other than it consistently passes.
