Timeless Clock

Few mortals, in this hurried time 
    and age,
take time to listen to the timeless 
    ticking
of the Clock that runs the whole 
    universe
and measures time in aeons 
    and lightyears.


Fewer still are those who clock 
    the speed
of swift neutrons in billionths 
    of a second
just to pick the fruit of supreme 
    human will
from the tree of knowledge of good 
    and evil!
