Nothing Old

A broken wristwatch
nothing new, nothing old,
time does not pass
it is just the mind moving.

Nothing new under the sun but ----
behind the sun
all is ever new.

Wind an old watch
watch it tell you nothing
its hands move
with your thoughts.

Beyond the sun
the universe phones-in,
it asks just one question -

the answer to that
is you.
