Diamond Time

Listen to poem:
Time is a diamond you cannot mine,
You cannot find, buy or steal it, 
you cannot borrow more 
if you lose it.

So mind it like your
mothers's ring.
A keepsake bequeathed
once, and only once,
for you, and you alone,
as timekeeper.

Kukurukuku

KUKURUKUKU!!!
He would say KUKURUKU
Every new day he wakes
KUKURUKUKU!!!
 In my yard there was a cock
KUKURUKUKU!!!
He used to be my timekeeper
KUKURUKUKU!!!
Whenever he crows KUKURUKU
It means the night is far spent
KUKURUKUKU!!!
Wake up from your sleep
KUKURUKUKU!!!
For it’s time to go to the farm
KUKURUKUKU!!
He crows KUKURUKUKU…
As every birds fly out from their nest

Whom Do These Old Hands Belong

I stare at these old hands, where is the timekeeper?
Who can count my rings? Will they have to slice me?
How can these ancient hands be attached to my wrists?
Flipping them over I see that my pale skin is thinning
Three prominent blue veins under the skin touch my bracelets
Where is the time keeper? Why are the seconds so fast now?
I stare at these old hands, wondering to whom these old hands belong.

Timekeeper

The timekeeper,
holds time in his hands.
Like the tick of a clock,
or the filter of sand.
The timekeeper,
is round as the moon.
Counting the seconds,
till humanities doom.
The timekeeper,
judges my fate.
Whom I do treasure,
and whom I do hate.
The timekeeper,
 so wise and strong.
Yet he has a weakness,
that astonishes all.
The timekeeper,
know’s not one thing.
When his hour shall end,
when time's coo-coo clock sings.

Rumor of Broken Time Keeper

At first we heard a timekeeper was broken
But how do you break a person?
Or was a timekeeper something else in this world?
I looked around for evidence of time.
I found no clocks, watches or sundials.

This is a strange planet, I admitted to my captain.
Maybe because all of the time dials have been stolen or broken.
That would explain the lack of structure.
People were running amok, as if they did not know whether to come or go.
Broken timekeepers are no joke.
