And who knows the hours
For what they really are
Like those who have died?
They watch from afar
As we scamper through,
Trailing latte foam and chaos,
Certain everything depends
Upon what we’ve still to do.
They shake their dead heads,
Sighing without breaths,
Watching their clocks,
Which never move, lamenting
The haste of our living.
