time: the ultimate escape artist

H. Jordan

Perhaps society should go back to using an hourglass

If nothing else but to remind people

That time doesn’t move in an ever repeating circle

With millions of hours left

But instead it slowly slips through our fingers

Like sand 

Thousands of millions of seconds

That we can try to collect

But that we will never be able to hold onto

    Time goes by so fast .. often wander where it goes . I like your writing and the idea of sand
