Hour glass
I have an hour glass on my desk
That I fail to reverse often
Or even notice that
It will help me realize
time is ticking away.
If an Hour is all that I have to live
What will I do?
How I wish
I could empty it off
Of the sand of grains of thoughts
Or render my time stand still -
That is, as far as I am concerned.
Does it mean living for ever
Or standing still
in emptiness?
