It has been my lot
to put life back
into Clocks
that tick not
any more
They don’t like
the ghastly sight
of a Clock not moving.
But Time hasn’t stopped.
I suspect it never will,
except for the living
who keep repeating
the same script
from childhood to
oldage, of eat-drink-make merry
and marry-carry-tarry.
I am happy putting life
back into Clocks, not
having to dirty my hands
handling the living.
