Clock Tower


Anchoring a facsimile of the town square
A clock tower stands
The pretense that others care
That time is passing
That surprises happen
That longings emerge
With the passage of the suns rising and setting
Sundials have been exchanged for nanoseconds
Patience and waiting 'twittered' away
In endless syllables
Of meaningless chatter
Conversions once spoken in timelessness
