Life Time
Life Time
Each click of the second hand
validates my life. It's seamless.
I'm here and now. Maybe not smooth
as time can be reduced to billionth
of a second. Slices of time we can't
even begin to imagine. An incredible
number of snapshots! Life continues.
We desperately try to slow it down,
somehow tame time. This beast will
always end. We die into another womb.
