Clocks slay time
"Clocks slay time...time is dead as long as it is being clicked off by little wheels; only when the clock stops does time come to life. " William Faulkner, The Sound and the Fury
Slay it Again
is it the musical nature of Man?
to try to keep
within
syncopated beat
and against
it
measure
success,
or defeat...
how we go
up or down,
or hover, around
aimlessly
jammed,
in the streets
tunnning
to a rhythm
in the buried sea
chest,
where the meter
is
not yet in sync
...the rest
of the band
distant,
as in a dream
heard,
before it's seen
and
slapped !
upon the cheek
when alarm
beeps---
It's Time
whatever that means
